Image Dehazing Using Type-2 Fuzzy Approach

This chapter presents a single image dehazing method employing a Type-2 membership function based similarity function matrix. The approach involves estimating the depth map and global atmospheric light from the observed hazy image. Subsequently, the estimated depth map is used to generate the true scene transmission. Finally, the observed hazy image undergoes dehazing through the atmospheric scattering model, utilizing the scene transmission and global atmospheric light. The chapter showcases an extensive set of experimental results, demonstrating the superior performance of image dehazing using the Type-2 fuzzy approach.
