Retinex Algorithm on Changing Scales for Haze Removal with Depth Map

نویسنده

چکیده

In order to improve the traffic visibility in haze weathers, a Retinex algorithm based on the changing scale for haze removal with a depth map is proposed. It requires the haze image dark channel prior treatment to obtain the estimated depth map. Then it is according to the depth map to calculate Retinex scales for different parts of a hazy image. Finally a single scale Retinex transform is performed for each part of the image. Experimental results show that the algorithm can effectively improve the traffic visibility of hazy images without halo phenomena. Compared with the existing multi-scale Retinex algorithm MSR, it has the higher speed and better enhancement effect for the images that have greatly different scene depths.

Single Image Dehazing Using Color Attenuation Prior

In this paper, we propose a simple but powerful prior, color attenuation prior, for haze removal from a single input hazy image. By creating a linear model for modelling the scene depth of the hazy image under this novel prior and learning the parameters of the model by using a supervised learning method, the depth information can be well recovered. With the depth map of the hazy image, we can ...

Depth and Reflection Total Variation for Single Image Dehazing

Haze removal has been a very challenging problem due to its ill-posedness, which is more ill-posed if the input data is only a single hazy image. In this paper, we present a new approach for removing haze from a single input image. The proposed method combines the model widely used to describe the formation of a haze image with the assumption in Retinex that an image is the product of the illum...

Non-uniform illumination endoscopic imaging enhancement via anti-degraded model and L1L2-based variational retinex

In this paper, we propose a novel image enhancement algorithm via anti-degraded model and L1L2-based variational retinex (AD-L1L2VR) for non-uniform illumination endoscopic images. Firstly, a haze-free endoscopic image is obtained by an anti-degraded model named dark channel prior (DCP). For getting a more accurate transmission map, it is refined by using a guided image filtering. Secondly, the...

Haze and Cirrus Removal for Remote Sensing Image by Haze Thickness Map Estimation

Multispectral satellite images are often affected by haze and/or cirrus. A previous paper conferred a haze removal method that calculates a haze thickness based on a local search of dark objects. The haze-free signal is restored by subtracting the HTM from the affected image. The HTM method is substantially improved by employing the 1.38-μm cirrus band. The top-of-troposphere reflectance cirrus...
