Abstract:

The sky regions of foggy image processed by all the existing conventional dehazing methods are degraded by color distortion and severe noise. This paper proposes an improved algorithm which combines dark channel prior and inverse image. We first invert the foggy image, and then estimate the transmission of the inverse image. At last, compared with the non-inversed transmission, the larger values of the transmission are the final transmission. This algorithm tends to refine the medium transmission by adjusting the values of pixels in the bright region to meet the hypothesis of dark channel prior. The method is viable to eliminate color distortion of the dehazed image.

Improving Dark Channel Prior for Single Image Dehazing

This paper proposes an improved dark channel prior for removing haze from images. Dark channel prior is an effective method for removing haze. Dark channel is an image in the same size as the hazy image which is obtained by dividing the RGB images into windows and for each window, the minimum of each R, G and B channels are calculated. Then again the minimum of these three values is calculated ...

Adaptive Image Dehazing via Improving Dark Channel Prior

The dark channel prior (DCP) technique is an effective method to enhance hazy images. Dark channel is an image with the same size as the hazy image which represents the haze severity in different places of the image. The DCP method suffers from two problems: it is incapable for removing haze from smooth regions, causing blocking effects on these areas; it cannot properly reduce a haze with a no...

Single Image Dehazing Using Adaptive Restoration Factor in Dark Channel Prior

Images which are captured in outdoor scenes often degrade in quality due to atmospheric conditions induced by suspending particles like mist, haze, fog, etc. which scatter and absorb light before it reaches to the camera. The weather-degraded images directly affect the efficiency of computerized surveillance and monitoring system. In this paper, we propose an efficient haze removal technique wh...

An Improved Single Image Haze Removal Algorithm Based on Dark Channel Prior and Histogram Specification

We introduce an improved single image haze removal algorithm, which combines dark channel prior (DCP) and histogram specification. First, the dark channel prior knowledge proposed by Kaiming He is analyzed and a conclusion is drawn that the haze removal image based on dark channel prior will have a tendency to dim and indistinct in some specific situations. Especially, when cleaning the haze in...

Single Image Defogging Algorithm based on Dark Channel Priority

Based on dark channel priority, the paper proposes an improved defogging algorithm of single image which can defog the foggy images rapidly. The algorithm in the paper applies the method combining adaptive median filter and bilateral filter to figure out clear dark channel on the edge. And the algorithm is based on the physical model of foggy images to estimate transmission. Compared with the t...

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 ...
