  • Rescaled Block-Iterative (RBI) algorithms enhance convergence.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel RBI-SAGE algorithm combining RBI acceleration with SAGE.
  • To analyze the convergence properties of the proposed RBI-SAGE method.
  • To evaluate the image quality improvements offered by RBI-SAGE.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a novel algorithm integrating Rescaled Block-Iterative (RBI) and Space-Alternating Generalized Expectation-Maximization (SAGE).
