Restoration and Enhancement of Underwater Image based on Wavelength Compensation and Image Dehazing Technique
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 6
Abstract
Abstract: Getting clear images in underwater environments is an important issue in ocean engineering . Thequality of underwater images plays a important role in scientific world. Capturing images underwater is difficult, generally due to deflection and reflection of water particles, and color change due to light travelling in water with different wavelengths. Light dispersion and color transform result in contrast loss and color deviation in images acquired underwater. Restoration and Enhancement of an underwater object from an image distorted by moving water waves is a very challenging task. This paper proposes wavelength compensation and image dehazing technique to balance the color change and light scattering respectively. It also removes artificial light by using depth map technique. Water depth is estimated by background color. Color change compensation is done by residual energy ratio method. A new approach is presented in this paper. We make use of a special technique called wavelength compensation and dehazing technique along with the artificial light removal technique simultaneously to analyze the raw image sequences and recover the true object. We test our approach on both pretended and data of real world, separately. Such technique has wide applications to areas such.
