Smoke Testing for Machine Learning: Simple Tests to Discover Severe Defects [PDF]
Machine learning is nowadays a standard technique for data analysis within software applications. Software engineers need quality assurance techniques that are suitable for these new kinds of systems. Within this article, we discuss the question whether standard software testing techniques that have been part of textbooks since decades are also useful ...

FoSp: Focus and Separation Network for Early Smoke Segmentation [PDF]
Early smoke segmentation (ESS) enables the accurate identification of smoke sources, facilitating the prompt extinguishing of fires and preventing large-scale gas leaks. But ESS poses greater challenges than conventional object and regular smoke segmentation due to its small scale and transparent appearance, which can result in high miss detection rate

Distinctive Self-Similar Object Detection [PDF]
Deep learning-based object detection has demonstrated a significant presence in the practical applications of artificial intelligence. However, objects such as fire and smoke, pose challenges to object detection because of their non-solid and various shapes, and consequently difficult to truly meet requirements in practical fire prevention and control.

Deep Domain Adaptation Based Video Smoke Detection using Synthetic Smoke Images [PDF]
In this paper, a deep domain adaptation based method for video smoke detection is proposed to extract a powerful feature representation of smoke. Due to the smoke image samples limited in scale and diversity for deep CNN training, we systematically produced adequate synthetic smoke images with a wide variation in the smoke shape, background and ...
