Abstract

This paper presents an overview of methods usable for segmentation of thermal images in MATLAB computational environment. The goal of this work is the demonstration usage of available methods and evaluate their performance. Part of the work is to present the datasets we create for testing. This paper is part of our ongoing work focused on segmentation of thermal images from the process of traverse wedge rolling.
