Abstract
We introduce and evaluate a block-iterative Fisher scoring (BFS) algorithm for emission tomography. Regularization is achieved by penalized likelihood with a general quadratic penalty. When the algorithm converges, it converges to the unconstrained maximum penalized likelihood (MPL) solution. In a simulated data set, constrained BFS achieves a higher penalized likelihood in fewer iterations than other block-iterative algorithms which are designed for non-negatively constrained penalized reconstruction
