Fire and smoke detection with deep learning: A review

Abstract

This paper outlines a state-of-the-art method for smoke and fire detection utilizing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The current smoke detectors installed in buildings pose a challenge for effective fire detection. The inefficiency of traditional methods in terms of speed and cost led to the exploration of using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to identify and alert from Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) footage. In this paper, an analytical overview of AI is conducted by using a selfcreated dataset of video frames containing flames and smoke. The data undergoes pre-processing before being used to train a CNN-based machine learning model. The goal of this review study is to understand the available literature in the field and propose a highly accurate, cost-effective, and simple system for fire detection in various scenarios.
