Abstract
Linear systems have been used extensively in engineering to model
and control the behaviour of dynamical systems. In this note, we present the
Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm for estimating the parameters of linear systems
(Shumway and Stoffer, 1982). We also point out the relationship between linear
dynamical systems, factor analysis, and hidden Markov models
