Abstract:
1. A flame identification method of identifying any flame image in a plurality of image frames captured consecutively from a monitored area, each of image frames including a plurality of pixels each having pixel data converted into a hue value, a saturation value and an intensity value in hue-saturation-intensity (HSI) color space, said flame identification method comprising the steps of: a) for each of the image frames, b) when a number (N) of the first 2-D coordinates corresponding to a sequence of the image frames are formed consecutively in step a), performing linear regression analyses on the first 2-D coordinates to generate a first determination coefficient; and c) determining whether a flame image exists in the image frames based on the first determination coefficients generated in step b) and a predetermined identification threshold.
