This PR fixes the negative value of the lower bound (
-np.infty
) of the GaussianMixture to ensure the lower bound differences between each iterations is always positive.In practice, it doesn't change the results of the Gaussian Mixture.
The only way to add a test for that is to store the useless difference of lower bound between two iterations. As the sign of the initial lower bound value does not change the result, I think it's not add a test for that.
