Összefoglaló	An Explainable Gaussian Mixture Model (X-GMM) augments the classical GMM probabilistic clustering framework with transparency mechanisms — such as feature-attribution scores, component-level summaries, or sparse covariance structures — so that discovered clusters and density estimates can be understood, communicated, and audited by human experts.	Latent class analysis identifies unobserved subgroups — latent classes — within a population by finding patterns of responses across a set of categorical observed indicators. It is the categorical-variable counterpart of cluster analysis, but grounded in an explicit probabilistic model, and is widely used in social, health, and behavioral sciences to discover typologies in survey or diagnostic data.
