Statistical reconstruction has become popular in emission computed tomography but suffers slow convergence (to the
MAP
or ML solution). Methods proposed to address this problem include the fast but non-convergent OSEM and the convergent RAMLA [1] for the ML case, and the convergent BSREM [2], relaxed OS-
SPS
and modified BSREM [3] for the
MAP
case. The convergent algorithms required a user-determined relaxation schedule. We proposed fast convergent OS reconstruction algorithms for both ML and
MAP
cases, called COSEM (Complete-data OSEM), which avoid the use of a relaxation schedule while maintaining convergence. COSEM is a form of incremental EM algorithm. Here, we provide a derivation of our COSEM algorithms and demonstrate COSEM using simulations. At early iterations, COSEM-ML is typically slower than RAMLA, and COSEM-
MAP
is typically slower than optimized BSREM while remaining much faster than conventional
MAP
-EM. We discuss how COSEM may be modified to overcome these limitations.
