    Diferansiyel PIR algılayıcılarla dalgacık tabanlı alev tespiti
    (IEEE, 2012-04) Erden, F.; Töreyin, B. U.; Soyer, E. B.; İnaç, İ.; Günay, O.; Köse, K.; Çetin, A. Enis
    Bu makalede, diferansiyel kızılberisi algılayıcı (PIR) kullanılarak geliştirilen bir alev tespit sistemi önerilmektedir. Diferansiyel kızılberisi algılayıcılar, yalnızca görüş alanlarındaki ani sıcaklık değişikliklerine duyarlıdır ve zamanla değişen sinyaller üretir. Algılayıcı sinyaline ait dalgacık dönüşümü, öznitelik çıkarmak için kullanılır ve bu öznitelik vektörü hızlı titreşen kontrolsüz bir ateşin alevi ve bir kişinin yürümesi olaylarıyla eğitilmiş Markov modellerine sokulur. En yüksek olasılıkla sonuçlanan modele karar verilir. Karşılaştırmalı sonuçlar, sistemin geniş odalarda ateş tespiti için kullanılabileceğini düşündürmektedir.

    Falling person detection using multisensor signal processing
    (SpringerOpen, 2008) Toreyin, B. U.; Soyer, E. B.; Onaran, I.; Cetin, E. E.
    Falls are one of the most important problems for frail and elderly people living independently. Early detection of falls is vital to provide a safe and active lifestyle for elderly. Sound, passive infrared (PIR) and vibration sensors can be placed in a supportive home environment to provide information about daily activities of an elderly person. In this paper, signals produced by sound, PIR and vibration sensors are simultaneously analyzed to detect falls. Hidden Markov Models are trained for regular and unusual activities of an elderly person and a pet for each sensor signal. Decisions of HMMs are fused together to reach a final decision.

    VOC gas leak detection using pyro-electric infrared sensors
    (IEEE, 2010) Erden, Fatih; Soyer, E. B.; Toreyin, B. U.; Çetin, A. Enis
    In this paper, we propose a novel method for detecting and monitoring Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) gas leaks by using a Pyro-electric (or Passive) Infrared (PIR) sensor whose spectral range intersects with the absorption bands of VOC gases. A continuous time analog signal is obtained from the PIR sensor. This signal is discretized and analyzed in real time. Feature parameters are extracted in wavelet domain and classified using a Markov Model (MM) based classifier. Experimental results are presented. ©2010 IEEE.

    Wavelet based flickering flame detector using differential PIR sensors
    (Elsevier, 2012-07-06) Erden, F.; Toreyin, B. U.; Soyer, E. B.; Inac, I.; Gunay, O.; Kose, K.; Çetin, A. Enis
    A Pyro-electric Infrared (PIR) sensor based flame detection system is proposed using a Markovian decision algorithm. A differential PIR sensor is only sensitive to sudden temperature variations within its viewing range and it produces a time-varying signal. The wavelet transform of the PIR sensor signal is used for feature extraction from sensor signal and wavelet parameters are fed to a set of Markov models corresponding to the flame flicker process of an uncontrolled fire, ordinary activity of human beings and other objects. The final decision is reached based on the model yielding the highest probability among others. Comparative results show that the system can be used for fire detection in large rooms.
