An Adaptive Threshold Deep Learning Method for Fire and Smoke Detection

This paper proposes a novel method for fire and smoke detection using video images. The ViBe method is used to extract a background from the whole video and to update the exact motion areas using frame-by-frame differences. Dynamic and static features extraction are combined to recognize the fire and smoke areas. For static features, we use deep learning to detect most of fire and smoke areas based on a Caffemodel. Another static feature is the degree of irregularity of fire and smoke. An adaptive weighted direction algorithm is further introduced to this paper. To further reduce the false alarm rate and locate the original fire position, every frame image of video is divided into 16x16 grids and the times of smoke and fire occurrences of each part is recorded All clues are combined to reach a final detection result Experimental results show that the proposed method in this paper can efficiently detect fire and smoke and reduce the loss and false detection rates.
