Try the Color Thresholder on the Apps tab of the tool ribbon. Use HSV color space, then click the Export function button on the tool ribbon.

clc;    % Clear the command window.
close all;  % Close all figures (except those of imtool.)
clear;  % Erase all existing variables. Or clearvars if you want.
workspace;  % Make sure the workspace panel is showing.
format long g;
format compact;
fontSize = 16;
markerSize = 20;

%    READ IN TEST IMAGE
folder = pwd;
baseFileName = 'Malini.png';
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
% Check if file exists.
if ~isfile(fullFileName)
    % The file doesn't exist -- didn't find it there in that folder.
    % Check the entire search path (other folders) for the file by stripping off the folder.
    fullFileNameOnSearchPath = baseFileName; % No path this time.
    if ~exist(fullFileNameOnSearchPath, 'file')
        % Still didn't find it.  Alert user.
        errorMessage = sprintf('Error: %s does not exist in the search path folders.', fullFileName);
        uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
        return;
    end
end
rgbImage = imread(fullFileName);
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Display the image.
subplot(2, 2, 1);
imshow(rgbImage, []);
impixelinfo;
axis('on', 'image');
title('Original RGB Image', 'FontSize', fontSize, 'Interpreter', 'None');
% Update the dimensions of the image.
% numberOfColorChannels should be = 1 for a gray scale image, and 3 for an RGB color image.
[rows, columns, numberOfColorChannels] = size(rgbImage)

rows =    478
columns =    639
numberOfColorChannels =      3

% Maximize window.
g = gcf;
g.WindowState = 'maximized';
g.Name = 'Demo by Image Analyst';
g.NumberTitle = 'off';

% Threshold image.
[mask,maskedRGBImage] = createMask(rgbImage);
% Fill holes.
mask = imfill(mask, 'holes');
% Take largest blob.
mask = bwareafilt(mask, 1);

imshow(mask)

% Set background pixels where BW is false to zero.
