Forest Fire Prediction Based on Long- and Short-Term Time-Series Network

Modeling and prediction of forest fire occurrence play a key role in guiding forest fire prevention. From the perspective of the whole world, forest fires are a natural disaster with a great degree of hazard, and many countries have taken mountain fire prediction as an important measure for fire prevention and control, and have conducted corresponding research. In this study, a forest fire prediction model based on LSTNet is proposed to improve the accuracy of forest fire forecasts. The factors that influence forest fires are obtained through remote sensing satellites and GIS, and their correlation is estimated using Pearson correlation analysis and testing for multicollinearity. To account for the spatial aggregation of forest fires, the data set was constructed using oversampling methods and proportional stratified sampling, and the LSTNet forest fire prediction model was established based on eight influential factors. Finally, the predicted data were incorporated into the model and the predicted risk map of forest fires in Chongli, China was drawn. This paper uses metrics such as RMSE to compare with traditional machine learning methods, and the results show that the LSTNet model proposed in this paper has high accuracy (ACC 0.941). This study illustrates that the model can effectively use spatial background information and the periodicity of forest fire factors, and is a novel method for spatial prediction of forest fire susceptibility.
