The EM algorithm is not an algorithm for solving problems, rather an
algorithm for creating statistical methods. So you need to look for a
package to solve the specific problem you want to solve.
In some engineering literature the term is used for its application to
finite mixtures of distributions -- there are plenty of packages on CRAN
to do that.
