Gaussian Mixture Model

We will be discussing the Gaussian Mixture Model. A basic prerequisite to this blog is that one must know about the Gaussian distribution. The Gaussian is also called the normal distribution by statistics people. However, the GMM is called the GMM because in this scenario the G stands for Gaussian and it's not called a normal mixture model. Let's first start with a basic intuition of what a Gaussian mixture is by considering only a single Gaussian we can begin with a typical example.
