Immediate and accurate detection of wildfire is essentially important in forest monitoring systems
•One of the most harmful hazards in rural areas
•For wildfire detection, the use of visible-range video captured by surveillance cameras are suitable
•They can be deployed and operated in a cost-effective manner
•The challenge is to provide a robust detection system with negligible false positive rates
•If the flames are visible, they can be detected by analyzing the motion and color clues of a video
•Modeling various spatio-temporal features and dynamic texture analysis have been shown to be able to detect fire as well
