R help - Jun 2013 - Package for maximizing likelihood function with EM algorithm

Hi R users,

I am trying to figure out if there is a package in R that can maximize
likelihood function with EM algorithm. Right now, I have derived the
log-likelihood function, which is a function of 9 indicator variables with 14
parameters. Is there a package that I can specify the log-likelihood function,
along with all variables and parameters, and will generate estimates?

Thanks for help!
