Deep Learning Method for Real-Time Fire Detection System for Urban Fire Monitoring and Control

During urban fire incidents, real-time videos and images are vital for emergency responders and decision-makers, facilitating efficient decision-making and resource allocation in smart city fire monitoring systems. However, real-time videos and images require simple and embeddable models in small computer systems with highly accurate fire detection ratios. YOLOv5s has a relatively small model size and fast processing time with limited accuracy. The aim of this study is to propose a method that employs a YOLOv5s network with a squeeze-and-excitation module for image filtering and classification to meet the urgent need for rapid and accurate real-time screening of irrelevant data. In this study, over 3000 internet images were used for crawling and annotating to construct a dataset. Furthermore, the YOLOv5, YOLOv5x and YOLOv5s models were developed to train and test the dataset. Comparative analysis revealed that the proposed YOLOv5s model achieved 98.2% accuracy, 92.5% recall, and 95.4% average accuracy, with a remarkable processing speed of 0.009 s per image and 0.19 s for a 35 frames-per-second video. This surpasses the performance of other models, demonstrating the efficacy of the proposed YOLOv5s for real-time screening and classification in smart city fire monitoring systems.

The impact of time to defibrillation on return of spontaneous circulation in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients with recurrent shockable rhythms

ObjectiveOptimal timing for subsequent defibrillation attempts for Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with recurrent VF/pVT is uncertain. We investigated the relationship between VF/pVT duration and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in OHCA patients with recurrent shockable rhythms. MethodsWe analyzed data from the Salt Lake City Fire Department (SLCFD) spanning from 2012 to 2023. The implementation of rhythm-filtering technology since 2011 enabled real-time rhythm interpretation during CPR, with local protocols allowing early defibrillation for recurrent/refractory VF/pVT cases. We included patients experiencing four or five episodes of VF and pVT rhythms and employed generalized estimating equation (GEE) regression analysis to examine the association between VF/pVT durations preceding recurrent defibrillation and return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). ResultsAnalysis of 622 appropriate shocks showed that patients achieving ROSC had significantly shorter median VF/pVT duration than those who did not achieve ROSC (0.83 minutes vs. 1.2 minutes, p = 0.004). Adjusted analysis of those with 4 VF/pVT episodes (N = 142) revealed that longer VF/pVT durations were associated with lower odds of achieving ROSC (odds ratio: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.72–0.93, p = 0.005). Every one-minute delay in intra-arrest defibrillation is predicted to decrease the likelihood of achieving ROSC by 19%. ConclusionEvery one-minute increase in intra-arrest VF/pVT duration was associated with a statistically significant 19% decrease in the chance of achieving ROSC. This highlights the importance of reducing time to shock in managing recurrent VF/pVT. The findings suggest reevaluating the current recommendations of two minutes intervals for rhythm check and shock delivery.

Safety climate and seat belt use in the fire service

Objective Motor vehicle incidents or apparatus crashes are a leading cause of firefighter fatalities in the United States. Nonuse of seat belts has been linked to some of these fatalities. This research seeks to understand the relationship between safety climate and seat belt use among firefighters, as findings will provide insights into factors that may bolster seat belt use and protect firefighters. Methods Data were collected from 208 career firefighters working for a city fire department in the southeastern United States. Structural equation modeling was used to test a hypothesized model and to assess the relationships between organizational safety climate, work group safety climate and seat belt use. Results It was determined that positive perceptions of workgroup safety climate, as a higher order factor, comprised of supervisor support, horizontal cohesion, and vertical cohesion, was positively associated with seat belt use within a sample of firefighters. Organizational level safety climate did not have a significant relationship with seat belt use but did positively influence workgroup safety climate perceptions. Conclusions Safety climate has been associated with safety compliance and participation behaviors, but more research was needed to specifically examine the impact of safety climate on seat belt use in firefighters. The findings point to the importance of safety climate as a leading indicator and predictor of seat belt use. Bolstering safety climate through safety programs, commitment to safety, effective communication, supportive supervisors and cohesion should ultimately aid in bolstering seat belt use among firefighters, which is important to curtailing firefighter injuries and fatalities.

Epidemiology and outcome of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Salt Lake City: Sex-based investigations.

Prior research indicates sex disparities in the incidence and outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This study investigates the presence of such differences in Salt Lake City, Utah. We analyzed data from the Salt Lake City Fire Department (2008‒2023). We included adults with non-traumatic OHCA. We calculated the annual incidence of OHCA and examined sex-specific survival outcomes using multivariable logistic regression, adjusting for OHCA characteristics known to be associated with survival. The annual incidence of OHCA was 76 per 100,000 person-years. Among the 894 OHCA cases included in the analysis, 67.5% were males, 37.3% achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), and 13.6% survived hospital discharge. Unadjusted analysis revealed that males had significantly higher OHCA in public locations (43.9%vs. 28.6%), witnessed arrests (54.5%vs. 47.8%), and shockable rhythms (33.3%vs. 22.9%). Males also showed higher rates of ROSC (37.5%vs. 36.9%), hospital discharge survival (14.5%vs. 11.7%), and neurologically intact survival. After adjusting for the OHCA characteristics, there was no significant differences between males and females in ROSC, survival to hospital discharge, and favorable neurological function with adjusted odds ratios (male vs. female) of 0.92 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.73‒1.16), 0.85 (95% CI 0.59‒1.22), and 0.92 (95% CI 0.62‒1.40), respectively. Approximately, 128 adults suffer OHCA in Salt Lake City annually. Males initially showed higher crude survival rates, but after adjusting for OHCA characteristics, no significant sex differences in survival outcomes were found. Enhancing OHCA characteristics could benefit both sexes. Investigations into the relationship between sex- and region-specific factors influencing OHCA outcomes are needed.

The Effect Of Fire Simulation For Student’s Knowledge About Fire In SMA X Depok 2022

Fire is one of the disasters that often occur and result in losses, both to people, assets, and productivity. Fires can occur due to the use of fire, gas explosions, electrical short circuits, HP exploding, natural factors, building conditions, such as the distance between buildings, materials, access to rescue, and weather factors. A school must meet the requirements of safety, health, comfort, and security. Schools must have a stable and sturdy building structure and a safe zone to withstand natural disasters. They should also have an active and/or passive fire protection system to prevent and deal with fire disasters. Knowledge and attitudes are the first parameters of preparedness, which form the basis of every school element’s behavior in disaster preparedness. The research objective is to determine the differences in knowledge scores before and after a fire simulation. This study uses a knowledge questionnaire that has been tested for validity. The sample size is 37 respondents, and the data is analyzed using a paired T-test. The results of the study showed differences in knowledge before and after the fire simulation (p-value = 0.002). Therefore, researchers suggest that schools routinely carry out simple fire simulations in collaboration with the Depok City Fire Department and incorporate topics regarding fire disasters in the curriculum. School can also conduct virtual fire drills or use other methods and media such as video fire simulations, fire safety posters, or safety inductions conducted before starting the first class of the day .

КУПЕЧЕСКИЕ УСАДЬБЫ КАК ЧАСТЬ КУЛЬТУРНОГО ПРОСТРАНСТВА ПРОВИНЦИАЛЬНОГО ГОРОДА XIX — НАЧАЛА ХХ В.

The article presents the results of studying urban estates of provincial merchants based on a field survey of the preserved buildings of Yelabuga and analysis of various sources. The estate form of development determined the type of urban space of Yelabuga from the beginning of the 19th century and to the 1917 revolutionary upheavals. According to their purpose, merchant estates can be divided into residential and commercial-industrial, which was in many ways typical of the trading cities of the Central Russian zone. The structure of a merchant estate included a residential building, courtyard with outbuildings (stables, sheds, a glacier and a barn), bathhouse, one or two outbuildings, and garden plot. Geographically, the estates occupied plots measuring 17–20 acres, located on the sides of longitudinal streets and extended into the depths of the block. After the 1850 great city fire, each estate was fenced on two (and in some cases three) sides with firewall walls. The front of the house with a gate overlooked the red line of the street. The composition of the manor house was determined by the norms of regular urban planning, location, functional use of the territories, size and configuration of the land plot, as well as a local landscape. In the second half of the 19th — early 20th centuries, when Yelabuga turned into a large commercial center, a new type of merchant estate, combining residential and trading functions, became widespread. On the estate territory, in addition to residential and commercial buildings, there were shops and stores, warehouses and storehouses. At the same time, the merchants began to pay considerable attention to the functional side of buildings, their convenience, comfort, lighting, and ventilation.

Край света в центре Азии: Барнаул в романе Сергея Залыгина «После бури»

The city of Barnaul and the Ob River, on which it stands, appear in S. Zalygin’s last novel “After the Storm” (1982-1985) under two names at once: actually as “Barnaul” and “Ob”, but mainly as “Aul” and “River”. Replacing the real Barnaul with a fictional “Aul” is designed to emphasize the transition from geographical to metaphysical space. The novel takes place in an existential chronotope: the inhabitants of the city “Aul” live “on the border between being and not being.” Zalygin skillfully plays up facts from the real history of Barnaul, turning them into elements of a geopoetic myth. The peculiarity of the Zalyginsky “Aul” is that it is “Europe in Asia” and “Asia in Europe”. Here the twentieth century is adjacent to the Middle Ages. However, in 1917, rich in revolutionary upheavals, the fragile balance of power was disrupted. The hope for the feasibility of the Eurasian synthesis burned down in the fire of a catastrophic fire, which was caused in Barnaul-Aul by the chief city fire chief. It is noteworthy that “the only Horror Book in the world” is being created in the “Aul”. A city located on the “border of two worlds – the known and the unknown” turns out to be the most suitable place to store it.

Method of information technology for structure analysis of urban network fire-rescue units

The subject of this study is the process of analyzing the structure of the network of fire-rescue units of the city in the context of optimizing their spatial distribution. The purpose of this work is to increase the objectivity of decisions made while forming a city network of fire-rescue units by creating an information technology (IT) method for analysis of its structure based on the use of spatially distributed data. Objectives: to find ways to improve the level of fire safety, analyze existing approaches to the formation of a network of fire-rescue units, considering the peculiarities of building and organizing a network, and adapt the classical problem of placement; to propose a method for solving it to minimize the distance between the fire-rescue unit and the possible place of fire while ensuring maximum coverage of the territory by fire service; and to develop IT structure for its implementation based on the information flow model of the process of analyzing the fire-rescue units network using a geospatial approach. The following results were obtained. The study of the classical location problem and its adaptation to real problems arising from the analysis of the urban network of fire-rescue units made it possible to represent it as a set of independent complete bipartite graphs. To search the location of network nodes while solving an adapted problem, an IT method is developed, which, based on the p-median model, combines the author’s methodology for studying information processes and methods of geospatial analysis. Summarizing the requirements of the current legislation, a set of input and output IT data and a set of operations have been formed. The representation of the IT structure in the form of a data flow diagram explains how the set of factors is processed and generalized when making decisions on the creation and / or improvement of the existing city fire department. Conclusions. The results of the bibliographic search confirm the need to consider the spatial features of the area where it is planned to create a fire-rescue unit, as well as the spatial configuration of the urban network of existing fire stations, to evaluate its effectiveness using an integrated indicator. This requires the development of specialized methods focused on the use of geo-information systems for their implementation in decision support systems. Scientific and methodological support for IT has been developed, which gives local authorities a tool for analyzing fire safety in the city to create and / or improve the existing fire protection. An experiment to study the capabilities of the proposed method based on volunteered geographic information on Kharkiv city showed the effectiveness of its use for solving classical problems of placement, considering the accepted restrictions on the spatial availability of fire-rescue units. At the same time, additional opportunities appear in the formation of options for improving the network of fire-rescue units, considering their spatial distribution, workload, accessibility, and the resulting areas of coverage / non-coverage by the fire service. For example, the fire service coverage area of the existing structure of fire stations has been assessed. During the regulated time, it reaches 70% of the Kharkiv city area, and depending on the real road traffic, it can vary from 64.61% to 73.44%. It is illustrated that the creation of two additional fire and rescue units in the northern and southern parts of Kharkiv will increase the coverage area by approximately 5%, on average increasing it to 75.1%
