Nighttime image dehazing faces a more complex degradation pattern than its daytime counterpart, as haze scattering couples with low illumination, non-uniform lighting, and strong light interference. Under limited supervision, this…
Image dehazing aims to remove unwanted hazy artifacts in images. Although previous research has collected paired real-world hazy and haze-free images to improve dehazing models' performance in real-world scenarios, these models often…
In general, underwater images suffer from color distortion and low contrast, because light is attenuated and backscattered as it propagates through water (differently depending on wavelength and on the properties of the water body). An…
