Single Image Dehazing based on Modified Dark Channel Prior and Fog Density Detection

In this thesis, a single image dehazing method based on modified dark channel prior and haze (fog) density detection is proposed. Dark channel prior dehazing algorithm is achieved good results for some haze images. However, we observed that haze images contain low and high haze density. Thus, the region of low haze density is unnecessary to dehaze. To solve this problem, we first defined the HSV distance, pixel-based dark channel prior and pixel-based bright channel prior to estimate the haze density. Further to enhance the dehazing performance of dark channel prior, the atmospheric light value and dehazing weighting is revised based on the HSV distance. Then the new transmission map is obtained. After that, a bilateral filter is applied to refine the transmission map, which can provide the higher accuracy of transmission map. Finally, the haze-free image is recovered by combining the input image and the refined transmission map. As a result, high-quality haze-free image can be recovered with lower computational complexity, which can be naturally extended to video dehazing.
