  • Publication number: 20240005759
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to the technical field of smoke detection and discloses a lightweight fire smoke detection method, a terminal device, and a storage medium. Primarily, a smoke-like foreground is screened out based on a combination of a mixed Gaussian model and a YUV color model; and an ACON activation function is introduced to replace a Leaky ReLU activation function of YOLOv5 to form an ACON-CSP module for feature extraction. In the present invention, the smoke foreground is extracted for preprocessing by using the combination of the mixed Gaussian and YUV. Thus, in the preprocessing stage, static interference and non-smoke color interference in the preprocessing stage are ruled out while narrowing down the range of smoke detection, ensuring the relative accuracy and improving the detection speed, thereby providing a possible method for fire smoke detection of a low-end terminal device in an outdoor computer.
