    Haze is very apparent in images shot during periods of bad weather (fog). The image's clarity and readability are both diminished as a result. As part of this work, we suggest a method for improving the quality of the hazy image and for identifying any objects hidden inside it. To address this, we use the picture enhancement techniques of Dark Channel Prior and Guided Filter. The Saliency map is then used to segment the improved image and identify passing vehicles. Lastly, we describe our method for calculating the actual distance in units from a camera-equipped vehicle of an item (another vehicle).Our proposed solution can warn the driver based on the distance to help them prevent an accident. Our suggested technology improves images and accurately detects vehicles nearly 100% of the time

    Improving Mix-CLAHE with ACO for Clearer Oceanic Images

    Oceanic pictures have poor visibility attributable to various factors; weather disturbance, particles in water, lightweight frames and water movement which results in degraded and low contrast pictures of underwater. Visibility restoration refers to varied ways in which aim to decline and remove the degradation that have occurred whereas the digital image has been obtained. The probabilistic Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) approach is presented to solve the problem of designing an optimal route for hard combinatorial problems. It\u27s found that almost all of the prevailing researchers have neglected several problems i.e. no technique is correct for various reasonably circumstances. the prevailing strategies have neglected the utilization of hymenopter colony optimization to cut back the noise and uneven illuminate downside. The main objective of this paper is to judge the performance of ANT colony optimization primarily based haze removal over the obtainable MIX-CLAHE (Contrast Limited adaptive histogram Equalization) technique. The experiment has clearly showed the effectiveness of the projected technique over the obtainable strategies

    Physical-based optimization for non-physical image dehazing methods

    Images captured under hazy conditions (e.g. fog, air pollution) usually present faded colors and loss of contrast. To improve their visibility, a process called image dehazing can be applied. Some of the most successful image dehazing algorithms are based on image processing methods but do not follow any physical image formation model, which limits their performance. In this paper, we propose a post-processing technique to alleviate this handicap by enforcing the original method to be consistent with a popular physical model for image formation under haze. Our results improve upon those of the original methods qualitatively and according to several metrics, and they have also been validated via psychophysical experiments. These results are particularly striking in terms of avoiding over-saturation and reducing color artifacts, which are the most common shortcomings faced by image dehazing methods
