Detailed Description

This class implements the NEGML algorithm.

This class inherits from vOptimizer and implements the NEGML algorithm from Van Slambrouck et al, IEEE TMI, Jan 2015, vol. 34, pp. 126-136, "Bias reduction for low-statistics PET: Maximum likelihood reconstruction with a modified Poisson distribution". For the moment it does not implement the alpha parameter so it only needs the psi parameter that manages the transition from Poisson to Gaussian distributions.
