摘要

Existing dehazing methods often overlook the heterogeneous haze distribution across RGB channels, rely heavily on synthetic datasets with limited real-world generalization, and underutilize the benefits of skip connections and semantic priors. To address these challenges, we propose ColorBranchNet, a novel dehazing framework that processes R, G, and B channels independently to capture channel-specific haze characteristics better. To fuse multi-branch features and improve adaptability, we introduce Residual Dense Meta Blocks (RDMB), which leverage meta-learning for dynamic feature weighting. We further design Attention-Guided Skip Connections (AGSC) to preserve fine-grained details and propose a dedicated color loss to mitigate chromatic distortions. A semantic segmentation module provides high-level contextual guidance, refined via attention for adaptive enhancement. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ColorBranchNet achieves superior performance over state-of-the-art methods in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations. Notably, it generalizes well to real-world hazy images despite training exclusively on synthetic data. Code is available at: https://github.com/71717171fan/ColorBranchNet.
