HNDiff diffusion model integrates atmospheric physics for advanced image dehazing

Researchers have introduced Haze-Noise Diffusion (HNDiff), a novel diffusion framework for image dehazing that incorporates the atmospheric scattering model. Unlike previous methods that reconstruct images from pure noise, HNDiff integrates physical principles by adding both haze and noise during its forward process, with noise levels adapted to haze density. This approach aims to improve restoration by aligning with the underlying mechanisms of haze formation. The framework also includes Latent HNDiff, which enhances existing dehazing networks, and has demonstrated state-of-the-art results on benchmark datasets. AI

    HNDiff: Haze-Noise Diffusion for Image Dehazing

    Existing diffusion-based methods have recently made significant progress in image dehazing. However, they typically neglect the physics of haze formation and reconstruct clean images from pure Gaussian noise, thereby limiting their restoration potential. To address this issue, we…
