Researchers have developed a new pipeline to improve the accuracy of thermographic anomaly detection in cultural heritage digital twins. This method corrects per-pixel emissivity, which is crucial for accurate temperature retrieval on heterogeneous surfaces. The pipeline utilizes SAM 3.1 for segmentation and a material-keyed emissivity table, significantly reducing mean absolute error on synthetic benchmarks and real-world datasets. However, the correction's impact is noted to be small on typical weathered heritage surfaces, with its effectiveness concentrated on genuine low-emissivity exceptions. AI
