چکیده

Existing dehazing methods based on the atmospheric scattering model improve image contrast and color fidelity at the cost of image brightness. We propose the use of transmission to combine the dehazing and retinex methods for visibility enhancement. The proposed method achieves both color fidelity and brightness without over saturation. Keywords—dehazing;retinex;image enhancement;

On the Duality Between Retinex and Image Dehazing

Image dehazing deals with the removal of undesired loss of visibility in outdoor images due to the presence of fog. Retinex is a color vision model mimicking the ability of the Human Visual System to robustly discount varying illuminations when observing a scene under different spectral lighting conditions. Retinex has been widely explored in the computer vision literature for image enhancement...

Retinex Algorithm on Changing Scales for Haze Removal with Depth Map

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 per...

Image Processing for Human Understanding in Low-visibility

Low-visibility conditions for navigation of vehicles are a frequent occurrence. Driving at night, in blizzards, in sand storms, or in fog form an obvious set of challenging conditions. Remote operation of unmanned vehicles through a camera image provides a similar difficulty. Gathering intelligence from satellite imagery can similarly benefit from improved visibility. Advanced image processing ...

Underwater image enhancement via extended multi-scale Retinex

Underwater exploration has become an active research area over the past few decades. The image enhancement is one of the challenges for those computer vision based underwater researches because of the degradation of the images in the underwater environment. The scattering and absorption are the main causes in the underwater environment to make the images decrease their visibility, for example, ...
