  • A Fast Semi-inverse Approach to Detect and Remove the Haze from a Single Image

    Codruta Orniana Ancuti, Cosmin Ancuți, Chris Hermans, Philippe Bekaert

    Lecture notes in computer science · 2011

    A novel approach to restore a single image degraded by atmospheric phenomena such as fog or haze is introduced, based on an extensive study on a large data set of images, and validated based on a metric that measures the contrast but also the structural changes.

  • Color Channel Compensation (3C): A Fundamental Pre-Processing Step for Image Enhancement

    Codruta Orniana Ancuti, Cosmin Ancuți, Christophe De Vleeschouwer, Mateu Sbert

    IEEE Transactions on Image Processing · 2019

    The proposed approach, called Color Channel Compensation (3C), overcomes artifacts resulting from the severely non-uniform color spectrum distribution encountered in images captured under hazy night-time conditions, underwater, or under non- uniform artificial illumination and is shown to consistently improve the outcome of conventional restoration methods.
