Since haze degrades an image including contrast decreasing and color lost, which has a negative effect on the subsequent object detection and recognition. single image dehazing is a challenging visual task. Most existing dehazing methods are not robust to uneven haze. In this paper, we developed an adaptive distillation network to solve the dehaze problem with non-uniform haze, which does not rely...Show More
In this paper, we reduce the image dehazing problem to an image-to-image translation problem, and propose Enhanced Pix2pix Dehazing Network (EPDN), which generates a haze-free image without relying on the physical scattering model. EPDN is embedded by a generative adversarial network, which is followed by a well-designed enhancer. Inspired by visual perception global-first theory, the discriminato...Show More
This paper reviews the first challenge on image dehazing (restoration of rich details in hazy image) with focus on proposed solutions and results. The challenge had 2 tracks. Track 1 employed the indoor images (using I-HAZE dataset), while Track 2 outdoor images (using O-HAZE dataset). The hazy images have been captured in presence of real haze, generated by professional haze machines. I-HAZE data...Show More
