I thought cold fusion was the process of fusion, but figuring out how to do it without the massive amount of heat required...

That's right, because to start the fusion of atoms at this moment, you need huge amounts of enrgy in the first place (hidrogen bomb). You basically need a controled nuclear explosion to start the fusion. Cold fusion would be fusion without the initial explosion (Blastradius' method is the one that works in theory, but can not really be applied, that's why people are looking for other methods to achieve cold fusion).
