Abstract
Without question, astronomy is about Big Data and clustering is a very common task over astronomy domain. The expectation-maximization algorithm is among the top 10 data mining algorithms used in scientific and industrial applications, however, we observe that astronomical community does not make use of it as a clustering algorithm. In this work, we cluster $\sim$ 1M stellar objects (simulated Galactic spectral data) via the traditional expectation-maximization algorithm for clustering (EM-T) and our extended EM-T algorithm that we call EM* and present the experimental results.
