🏋️ Training
I set up train.ipynb script for training the model from scratch. To train the model, download Fire-Dataset and put it in datasets folder. I filtered out images and annotations that contain fire and guns as well as images with low resolution, and then changed fire annotation's label in annotation files.
- YOLOv5
python train.py --img 640 --batch 16 --epochs 10 --data ../fire.yaml --weights yolov5s.pt --workers 0
- YOLOv9
python train_dual.py --workers 4 --device 0 --batch 16 --data ../fire.yaml --img 640 --cfg models/detect/yolov9-c.yaml --weights '' --name yolov9-c --hyp hyp.scratch-high.yaml --min-items 0 --epochs 50 --close-mosaic 15
🌱 Inference
- YOLOv5
If you train your own model, use the following command for detection:
python detect.py --source ../input.mp4 --weights runs/train/exp/weights/best.pt --conf 0.2
Or you can use the pretrained model located in models folder for detection as follows:
python detect.py --source ../input.mp4 --weights ../models/yolov5s_best.pt --conf 0.2
- YOLOv9
python detect.py --weights runs/train/yolov9-c2/weights/best.pt --source ../input.mp4
You can download the pretrained yolov9-c.pt model from google drive for fire detection. Note that this model was trained on the fire dataset for 50 epochs. Refer to link to fix for detect.py runtime error when running yolov9.
⏱️ Results
The following charts were produced after training YOLOv5s with input size 640x640 on the fire dataset for 10 epochs.

Prediction Results
The fire detection results were fairly good even though the model was trained only for a few epochs. However, I observed that the trained model tends to predict red emergency light on top of police car as fire. It might be due to the fact that the training dataset contains only a few hundreds of negative samples. We may fix such problem and further improve the performance of the model by adding images with non-labeled fire objects as negative samples. The authors who created YOLOv5 recommend using about 0-10% background images to help reduce false positives.

Feature Visualization
It is desirable for AI engineers to know what happens under the hood of object detection models. Visualizing features in deep learning models can help us a little bit understand how they make predictions. In YOLOv5, we can visualize features using --visualize argument as follows:
python detect.py --weights runs/train/exp/weights/best.pt --img 640 --conf 0.2 --source ../datasets/fire/val/images/0.jpg --visualize

🔗 Reference
I borrowed and modified YOLOv5-Custom-Training.ipynb script for training YOLOv5 model on the fire dataset. For more information on training YOLOv5, please refer to its homepage.
