Abstract
A video flame detection method analyze the temporal and spatial characteristics of the regions which have the flame-like color and moving objects in the input video. The video flame detector should be able to reduce a false alarm rate without the degradation of flame detection capability. The conventional methods can reject the false alarm caused by the car lights and some electric lights. However they make the false alarm caused by the warning lights, neon sign, and some periodic flickering lights which have the flame-like color and temporal features. This paper propose the video flame detection method with periodicity analysis based false alarm rejection. The proposed method can detect the periodicity of the flickering electric lights and can reject the false alarm caused by the periodic electric lights. The computer simulation showed that the proposed method did not make the false alarm in the test video with the periodic electric lights. But the conventional methods made a false alarm in the same test video.
