| Résumé | The prediction of fire growth is crucial for effective firefighting and rescue operations. Recent advancements in vision-based techniques using RGB vision and infrared (IR) thermal imaging data, coupled with artificial intelligence and deep learning techniques, have shown promising solutions to be applied in the detection of fire and the prediction of its behavior. This study introduces the use of Convolutional Long Short-term Memory (ConvLSTM) network models for predicting room fire growth by analyzing spatiotemporal IR thermal imaging data acquired from full-scale room fire tests. Our findings revealed that SwinLSTM, an enhanced version of ConvLSTM combined with transformers (a deep learning architecture based on a new mechanism called multi-head attention) for computer vision purposes, can be used for the prediction of room fire flashover occurrence. Notably, transformer-based ConvLSTM deep learning models, such as SwinLSTM, demonstrate superior prediction capability, which suggests a new vision-based smart solution for future fire growth prediction tasks. The main focus of this work is to perform a feasibility study on the use of a pure vision-based deep learning model for analysis of future video data to anticipate behavior of fire growth in room fire incidents. |
