FM-Net: A New Method for Detecting Smoke and Flames

Aiming at the core problem of high false and missed alarm rate and insufficient interference resistance of existing smoke and fire detection algorithms in complex scenes, this paper proposes a target detection network based on improved feature pyramid structure. By constructing a Context Guided Convolutional Block instead of the traditional convolutional operation, the detected target and the surrounding environment information are fused with secondary features while reconfiguring the feature dimensions, which effectively solves the problem of edge feature loss in the down-sampling process. The Poly Kernel Inception Block is designed, and a multi-branch parallel network structure is adopted to realize multi-scale feature extraction of the detected target, and the collaborative characterization of the flame profile and smoke diffusion pattern is realized. In order to further enhance the logical location sensing ability of the target, a Manhattan Attention Mechanism Unit is introduced to accurately capture the spatial and temporal correlation characteristics of the flame and smoke by establishing a pixel-level long-range dependency model. Experimental tests are conducted using a self-constructed high-quality smoke and fire image dataset, and the results show that, compared with the existing typical lightweight smoke and fire detection models, the present algorithm has a significant advantage in detection accuracy, and it can satisfy the demand for real-time detection.
