Abstract

The invention relates to an image restoration method based on a real physical parameter scattering physical model. A new scattering model different from a general atmospheric light scattering model is established, a corresponding physical explanation can be given for each scattering environment, the relationship between the light source position and the scattering condition is elaborated, and the problem of scattering removal under non-uniform illumination is solved. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, removing a vignetting of a camera by using an integrating sphere, then finding out a pure scattering part through an improved dark channel-like prior method, and finally, calculating a zenith angle, an azimuth angle, an extinction coefficient and other related physical quantities according to light attenuation and back scattering distribution of a scattering medium to eliminate back scattering and light attenuation. Theoretically, the model can be used for any uniform scattering medium, such as underwater and fog environments, and works well in high-density media. The final experimental result shows that the model solves the problem of backward scattering removal under the strong scattering medium, is correct and effective, and has practical physical significance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a scattering model, in particular to an image recovery method based on physical parameters, which explains the relationship between the light source position and backscattering. Background technique [0002] In recent years, advances in technology have allowed people to capture images and videos in highly scattering environments. However, removal of backscattering has been a persistent problem in practical engineering settings. Backscattering causes things like color distortion and blurring of the image. This severely affects the performance of standard computer vision algorithms, which are generally developed to work in clear air. Therefore, in order to obtain reasonable results using these algorithms, the image must first be descattered. The well-known atmospheric scattering model is based on the Beer-Lambert law: [0003] I(x)=J(x)t(x)+A(1-t(x)) (1) [0004] t(x)=e -σz (2) [0005] Among them, the atmospheric light A...
