Dissipation Function and Adaptive Gradient Reconstruction Based Smoke Detection in Video

摘要

A method for smoke detection in video is proposed. The camera monitoring the scene is assumed to be stationary. With the atmospheric scattering model, dissipation function is reflected transmissivity between the background objects in the scene and the camera. Dark channel prior and fast bilateral filter are used for estimating dissipation function which is only the function of the depth of field. Based on dissipation function, visual background extractor (ViBe) can be used for detecting smoke as a result of smoke's motion characteristics as well as detecting other moving targets. Since smoke has semi-transparent parts, the things which are covered by these parts can be recovered by poisson equation adaptively. The similarity between the recovered parts and the original background parts in the same position is calculated by Normalized Cross Correlation (NCC) and the original background's value is selected from the frame which is nearest to the current frame. The parts with high similarity are considered as smoke parts.
