Local Defogging Algorithm for Improving Visual Impact in Image Based on Multiobjective Optimization

Abstract

The preprocessing of images is required for many applications based on industry, social, and academic requirements. Researchers have developed a number of techniques to improve the visual effect of images and appropriately interpret visual effects. The accuracy of visuals is important in cyber security, military organization, police organizations, and forensics to detect the true story from the pictures. They search for evidence by digging deep into the network in search of evidence. If visuals are not clear, preprocessing of images is not done correctly, then it may lead to wrong interpretations. This paper proposes an image local defogging technique based on multiobjective optimization to improve the visual effect of the image as well as the information entropy. The multiobjective function is selected to establish the image reconstruction model based on multiple objectives. The model is utilized to reconstruct a single image to moderate the impact of noise and other interference factors in the original image. The color constancy model and effective detail intensity model are also devised for image enhancement to get the visual details. The atmospheric light value and transmittance are evaluated using a physical model of atmospheric scattering, and the guided filter is used to maximize the transmittance of a single image and improve the efficiency of image defogging. The dark channel priority method is used to realize the local defogging of a single image and to design the local defogging algorithm. Experiments verify the optimization effect of the proposed algorithm in terms of information entropy and container network interface (CNI) value. The tone restoration degree is good, and it improves the overall image quality. The image defogging effect of the proposed algorithm is verified with respect to subjective and objective levels to check the efficacy of the proposed multiobjective model.
