IV Simposio Nacional sobre Incendios Forestales

 

International Workshop on Multi-Sensor Systems and Networks

for Fire Detection and Management

8-9 November 2012, Antalya, Turkey

---

• The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers from all over the world, who deal with fire detection and management using multi-media and multi-sensor devices and networks. Furthermore, outcome of the research that was carried out in European Community Funded Project FIRESENSE (Fire Detection and Management through a Multi-Sensor Network for the Protection of Cultural Heritage Areas from the Risk of Fire and Extreme Weather Conditions, FP7-ENV-2009-1–244088-FIRESENSE, www.firesense.eu) will be presented.

  Paper submissions should be related but not limited to any of the following topics:
   
  – Fire detection technologies
  – Video-based flame and smoke algorithms
  – IR-based fire detection systems and algorithms
  – Multispectral imaging forfire detection
  – Data fusion; Fire knowledge and semantics extraction
  – Fire simulation; Fire propagation estimation
  – Vegetation classification; Fuel models and maps
  – Remote sensing techniques for monitoring land cover
  – Data and image mining; Pattern mining
  – Pattern recognition; Pattern and image classification
  – Systems for protecting cultural heritage sites from wildfires and extreme weather conditions
  – Disaster management; Emergency management, Early warning systems
  – Databases; Multimedia databases; Information retrieval; Stream processing; Querying
  – Real-Time Event Learning and Detection
  – Fire and disaster detection and monitoring using wireless sensor networks
  – Sensor network routing algorithms; Sleep scheduling algorithms
