Condition monitoring in railways is an important and critical process in terms of travel safety. However, this process is generally done based on observation or with various equipment. Therefore, it is costly and has a high probability of error. In this study, a computer vision-based method for rail detection for condition monitoring in railways is proposed. In addition to the features obtained from the images, a new feature is calculated using entropy. Rail detection is provided by classifying these
features with Support Vector Machine (SVM). It has been seen that the proposed method works successfully and provides improvement in the monitoring process.
