Study of single image dehazing algorithm based on propagated filtering and minimum color channels

To solve the challenging problem that the edge regions of image have some remained hazes and blackspots,a novel image dehazing algorithm was proposed based on the minimal color channel and propagated filtering.Firstly,an initial atmospheric transmission map was obtained by double-area filtering,then...

description To solve the challenging problem that the edge regions of image have some remained hazes and blackspots,a novel image dehazing algorithm was proposed based on the minimal color channel and propagated filtering.Firstly,an initial atmospheric transmission map was obtained by double-area filtering,then a minimal channel color was introduced as a reference image,and the propagated filtering was combined to optimize the initial atmospheric transmission map.Optimized transmission have the similar edge characteristics as the referenced image,so the deviation of transmission estimation can be effectively avoided for the edge pixels in the depth mutated regions,and the redundant texture information were removed in the initial transmission map.Finally,L-BFGS was used to restore atmospheric light,and the haze-free image can be recovered based on the atmospheric scattering model.Experimental results show that proposed algorithm has the more accurate transmission estimation for the depth mutated edge regions of image,so the recovered image effectively preserves the edges and details in the depth mutated regions,and has better spatial smoothness in the uniform depth regions.The recovered haze-free image with proposed method has a better sharpness and richer color degree.
