Abstract

Early detection of agricultural fires with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is important for environmental safety, yet it remains difficult because ignition cues are extremely small, smoke patterns vary widely, and farmland scenes often contain strong background interference such as specular reflections. Model development is further constrained by the scarcity of data from the early ignition stage. To address these challenges, we propose a joint data and model optimization framework. We first build a hybrid dataset through an ROI-guided synthesis pipeline, in which latent diffusion models are u
