An Improved Framework Of Region Segmentation For Diagnosing Thermal Condition Of Electrical Installation Based On Infrared Image Analysis

The abnormality of electrical equipment will occur when its internal temperature reached beyond its limits, which can lead to subsequent failure of the equipment. Therefore, early prevention is required in order to avoid this fault while maintaining the reliability of the equipment. This research pr...
