============
Thresholding
============
Thresholding is used to create a binary image. This example uses Otsu's method
to calculate the threshold value.
Otsu's method calculates an "optimal" threshold (marked by a red line in the
histogram below) by maximizing the variance between two classes of pixels,
which are separated by the threshold. Equivalently, this threshold minimizes
the intra-class variance.
