AI-Driven Boost in Detection Accuracy for Agricultural Fire Monitoring

초록

In recent years, agricultural landscapes have increasingly suffered from severe fire incidents, posing significant threats to crop production, economic stability, and environmental sustainability. Timely and precise detection of fires, especially at their incipient stages, remains crucial to mitigate damage and prevent ecological degradation. However, conventional detection methods frequently fall short in accurately identifying small-scale fire outbreaks due to limitations in sensitivity and response speed. Addressing these challenges, this research proposes an advanced fire detection model based on a modified Detection Transformer (DETR) architecture. The proposed framework incorporates an optimized ConvNeXt backbone combined with a novel Feature Enhancement Block (FEB), specifically designed to refine spatial and contextual feature representation for improved detection performance. Extensive evaluations conducted on a carefully curated agricultural fire dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model, achieving precision, recall, mean Average Precision (mAP), and F1-score of 89.67%, 86.74%, 85.13%, and 92.43%, respectively, thereby surpassing existing state-of-the-art detection frameworks. These results validate the proposed architecture's capability for reliable, real-time identification, offering substantial potential for enhancing agricultural resilience and sustainability through improved preventive strategies.
