Hello,
A new submission has been added to the Insight Journal.

Title: Kappa Sigma Clipping
Author(s): Lehmann, Gaetan
Abstract: 
When an image is mostly composed of background pixels, most of the automatic
thresholding methods are failing to produce a relevant threshold. This is mainly
caused because one mode is over represented compared to the other in the histogram
of the image. The Kappa-Sigma clipping, a method largely used in astronomy, don't
try to separate 2 modes in the histogram, but rather try to find the properties of
the only usable mode, the one of the background, and compute a threshold to select
the values significantly different of the background.
