Alternating minimization algorithms for transmission tomography using energy detectors

Expectation-minimization algorithms for transmission tomography are extended to account for detectors that are modeled as integrating the energy of the incident X-ray photons. The resulting algorithm is guaranteed to monotonically increase the log likelihood functional. Both the expectation step and...
