Abstract
Methods, systems, devices, and tangible non-transitory computer readable media for haze reduction are provided. The disclosed technology can include generating feature vectors based on an input image including points. The feature vectors can correspond to feature windows associated with features of different portions of the points. Based on the feature vectors and a machine-learned model, a haze thickness map can be generated. The haze thickness map can be associated with an estimate of haze thickness at each of the points. Further, the machine-learned model can estimate haze thickness associated with the features. A refined haze thickness map can be generated based on the haze thickness map and a guided filter. A dehazed image can be generated based on application of the refined haze thickness map to the input image. Furthermore, a color corrected dehazed image can be generated based on performance of color correction operations on the dehazed image.
