Perception Oriented Haze Image Definition Restoration by Basing on Physical Optics Model

Existing haze removal approaches have unreliable estimation of atmospheric light and transmission, which lead to imprecision color information recovery, gradient reversal artifacts, and halo effect. In this paper, a novel haze removal technique based on ambient light model is presented. Our techniqu...

description Existing haze removal approaches have unreliable estimation of atmospheric light and transmission, which lead to imprecision color information recovery, gradient reversal artifacts, and halo effect. In this paper, a novel haze removal technique based on ambient light model is presented. Our technique applies canny edge detection algorithm which can locate the sky area accurately, and adopts binary-tree algorithm to obtain the radiance of atmospheric light <italic>A</italic> rapidly; then, an adaptive wiener filter is employed for modifying transmission map, and halo effect is further restricted in the sudden changed region of scene depth by the morphology method. Experimental results verify that the optimized approach has better robustness, and is superior to present methods.
