Unsupervised water scene dehazing network using multiple scattering model.

In water scenes, where hazy images are subject to multiple scattering and where ideal data sets are difficult to collect, many dehazing methods are not as effective as they could be. Therefore, an unsupervised water scene dehazing network using atmospheric multiple scattering model is proposed. Unli...
