Experimental Exploration of Compact Convolutional Neural Network Architectures for Non-temporal Real-time Fire Detection
share
In this work we explore different Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures and their variants for non-temporal binary fire detection and localization in video or still imagery. We consider the performance of experimentally defined, reduced complexity deep CNN architectures for this task and evaluate the effects of different optimization and normalization techniques applied to different CNN architectures (spanning the Inception, ResNet and EfficientNet architectural concepts). Contrary to contemporary trends in the field, our work illustrates a maximum overall accuracy of 0.96 for full frame binary fire detection and 0.94 for superpixel localization using an experimentally defined reduced CNN architecture based on the concept of InceptionV4. We notably achieve a lower false positive rate of 0.06 compared to prior work in the field presenting an efficient, robust and real-time solution for fire region detection.
