3.3 Extension of the mixture of probabilistic PCA

As an alternative to the presented extension of Neural Gas to local PCA, a modified version of the mixture of probabilistic PCA (Tipping and Bishop, 1999) was used. In the following, the modifications are described and motivated. Then, the obtained algorithm is tested on synthetic pattern sets.
