DORIS framework uses polarization and RGB for better underwater image restoration

Researchers have introduced DORIS, a novel framework designed to enhance underwater image restoration by jointly utilizing polarization and RGB information. This multimodal approach aims to improve the understanding and representation of mixed underwater degradations, leading to more robust image restoration. To support this research, a new benchmark called MixPolar has been created, which includes real-world underwater images with corresponding annotations for evaluating degradation perception, image restoration, and downstream task performance.

    DORIS: Polarization Aware Multimodal Degradation Perception for Underwater Image Restoration

    arXiv:2610.17991v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recovering high-quality images from degraded underwater observations is crucial for underwater exploration. Polarization observations show promise as an effective source of complementary physical cues for recovering target radia…
