Do not bring any flammable substances, such as matches or cigarettes. Cooking or wood fires are permitted only in designated areas. These are some of the regulations that are enforced when hiking or going to a vegetated forest. However, humans tend to disobey or disregard guidelines and the law. Therefore, to preemptively stop people from accidentally starting a fire, we created a technique that will allow early fire detection and classification to ensure the utmost safety of the living things in the forest. Some relevant studies on forest fire detection have been conducted in the past few years. However, there are still insufficient studies on early fire detection and notification systems for monitoring fire disasters in real time using advanced approaches. Therefore, we came up with a solution using the convergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and You Only Look Once Version 5 (YOLOv5). The experimental results show that IoT devices were able to validate some of the falsely detected fires or undetected fires that YOLOv5 reported. This report is recorded and sent to the fire department for further verification and validation. Finally, we compared the performance of our method with those of recently reported fire detection approaches employing widely used performance matrices to test the achieved fire classification results.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/fi15020061","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,1]],"date-time":"2023-02-01T04:27:02Z","timestamp":1675225622000},"page":"61","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":67,"title":["Forest Fire Detection and Notification Method Based on AI and IoT Approaches"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Kuldoshbay","family":"Avazov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Gachon University, Sujeong-Gu, Seongnam-Si 461-701, Republic of Korea"}]},{"given":"An Eui","family":"Hyun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Gachon University, Sujeong-Gu, Seongnam-Si 461-701, Republic of Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6424-9599","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alabdulwahab Abrar","family":"Sami S","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Gachon University, Sujeong-Gu, Seongnam-Si 461-701, Republic of Korea"}]},{"given":"Azizbek","family":"Khaitov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u201cDIGITAL FINANCE\u201d Center for Incubation and Acceleration, Tashkent Institute of Finance, Tashkent 100000, Uzbekistan"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5923-8695","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Akmalbek Bobomirzaevich","family":"Abdusalomov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Gachon University, Sujeong-Gu, Seongnam-Si 461-701, Republic of Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0184-7599","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Young Im","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Gachon University, Sujeong-Gu, Seongnam-Si 461-701, Republic of Korea"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2022, November 10).
