FASDD: An Open-access 100,000-level Flame and Smoke Detection Dataset for Deep Learning in Fire Detection

Abstract. With the advancement of computer vision, artificial intelligence, and remote sensing technologies, deep learning algorithms are increasingly used in terrestrial, airborne, and spaceborne-based fire detection systems. The performance and generalization of these data-driven fire detection algorithms, however, are restricted by the limited number and source of fire detection datasets. A large-scale fire detection benchmark dataset covering complex and varied fire scenarios is urgently needed. This work constructs a 100,000-level Flame and Smoke Detection Dataset (FASDD) based on multi-source heterogeneous flame and smoke images. It holds rich variations in image size, resolution, illumination (day and night), scenario (indoor and outdoor), image range (far and near), viewing angle (top view and side view), platform (surveillance cameras, drones, and satellites), and data source (Internet, social media, and open-access fire datasets). To the best of our knowledge, FASDD is currently the most versatile and comprehensive dataset for fire detection. It provides a challenging benchmark to drive the continuous evolution of fire detection models. Additionally, we formulate a unified workflow for preprocessing, annotation, and quality control of fire samples. Out-of-the-box annotations are published in four different formats for training deep learning models. Extensive performance evaluations based on classical methods show that most of the object detection models trained on FASDD can achieve satisfactory fire detection results, and especially YOLOv5x achieves nearly 80 % mAP@0.5 accuracy on heterogeneous images spanning two domains of computer vision and remote sensing. And the application in wildfire location demonstrates that deep learning models trained on our dataset can be used in recognizing and monitoring forest fires. Deep learning models trained with FASDD can be simultaneously deployed on satellites, drones, and ground sensors, thus realizing collaborative fire observation and detection in a space-air-ground integrated network environment. The dataset is available from the Science Data Bank website at https://doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.j00104.00103 (Wang et al., 2022a).

Short summary
We present a large-scale Flame and Smoke Detection Dataset (FASDD) covering complex and varied fire scenarios. FASDD contains fire, smoke, and confusing non-fire/non-smoke images acquired at different distances (near and far), different scenes (indoor and outdoor), different light intensities (day and night), and from various platforms (surveillance cameras, drones, and satellites). To the best of our knowledge, FASDD is currently the most versatile and comprehensive dataset for fire detection.
