    Video Fire Detection - Review
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2013) Dimitropoulos, Kosmas; Gouverneur, Benedict; Grammalidis, Nikos; Gunay, Osman; Habiboglu, Y. Hakan; Verstockt, Steven; Cetin, A. Enis
    This is a review article describing the recent developments in Video based Fire Detection (VFD). Video surveillance cameras and computer vision methods are widely used in many security applications. It is also possible to use security cameras and special purpose infrared surveillance cameras for fire detection. This requires intelligent video processing techniques for detection and analysis of uncontrolled fire behavior. VFD may help reduce the detection time compared to the currently available sensors in both indoors and outdoors because cameras can monitor "volumes" and do not have transport delay that the traditional "point" sensors suffer from. It is possible to cover an area of 100 km(2) using a single pan-tilt-zoom camera placed on a hilltop for wildfire detection. Another benefit of the VFD systems is that they can provide crucial information about the size and growth of the fire, direction of smoke propagation. (c) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Entropy-Functional Online Adaptive Decision Fusion Framework With Application To Wildfire Detection in Video
    (Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2012) Toreyin, Behcet Ugur; Kose, Kivanc; Cetin, A. Enis; Gunay, Osman
    In this paper, an entropy-functional-based online adaptive decision fusion (EADF) framework is developed for image analysis and computer vision applications. In this framework, it is assumed that the compound algorithm consists of several subalgorithms, each of which yields its own decision as a real number centered around zero, representing the confidence level of that particular subalgorithm. Decision values are linearly combined with weights that are updated online according to an active fusion method based on performing entropic projections onto convex sets describing subalgorithms. It is assumed that there is an oracle, who is usually a human operator, providing feedback to the decision fusion method. A video-based wildfire detection system was developed to evaluate the performance of the decision fusion algorithm. In this case, image data arrive sequentially, and the oracle is the security guard of the forest lookout tower, verifying the decision of the combined algorithm. The simulation results are presented.
