Expand description
The variational Bayes solver: E-step, M-step, bound and the outer loop.
Both steps are fan-outs over disjoint output slices, so neither needs a
reduction. The E-step gives each document its own column of gamma; the
M-step gives each term its own column of the sufficient statistics.
