Early wildfire detection using machine learning model deployed in the fog/edge layers of IoT

Abstract

<span lang="EN-US">The impact of wildfires, even following the fire's extinguishment, continues to affect harmfully public health and prosperity. Wildfires are becoming increasingly frequent and severe, and make the world's biodiversity in a growing serious danger. The fires are responsible for negative economic consequences for individuals, corporations, and authorities. Researchers are developing new approaches for detecting and monitoring wildfires, that make use of advances in computer vision, machine learning, and remote sensing technologies. IoT sensors help to improve the efficiency of detecting active forest fires. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for predicting wildfires, based on machine learning. It uses a regression model that we train over NASA's fire information for resource management system (FIRMS) dataset to predict fire radiant power in megawatts. The analysis of the obtained simulation results (more than 99% in the R2 metric) shows that the ensemble learning model is an effective method for predicting wildfires using an IoT device equipped with several sensors that could potentially collect the same data as the FIRMS dataset, such as smart cameras or drones.</span>

Insights on the internet of things: past, present, and future directions

“…IoT is especially common in industrial, transportation, and utility companies that use sensors and other IoT devices. It has, however, discovered application cases for firms in the home automation, agricultural and infrastructure sectors, driving some to digital evolution [66], [91], [98], [100], [166]- [170].…”

“…Before transmission, data must be filtered and compressed to an ideal size. 3) Edge IT data processing [67], [94], [100], [109], [122], [133], [140], [168]- [170], [216], [220]- [223] Before reaching the cloud center, the digitized and aggregated IoT data is processed further. Edge devices do sophisticated analytics and preprocessing, which may include machine learning and visual representation.…”

“…Nevertheless, without any additional hardwares costs, the NFV permits to a NFs for virtualization, which share a physicals resource like storage and compute with networking to expand of networks services based on UAVs systems. Multiple instances of NFs are creating by helps of containers at a NFV systems based on a network demand during single virtual machine [17]- [21].…”
