초록

칼라 영상의 안개제거 기술이 다양하게 연구되어 왔으며 이 중 칼라 안개 영상의 특성을 토대로 도출한 Dark Channel Prior(DCP) 모델을 이용한 방법이 가장 활발하게 이용되고 있다. 한편 근적외선 영상을 이용한 응용이 널리 사용되고 있으며 근적외선 영상에 존재하는 안개를 제거할 필요가 있음에도 불구하고 기존에 근적외선 영상을 대상으로 하는 안개 제거 기술이 제안되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 칼라 영상과 근적외선 영상을 안개 제거 측면에서 비교 분석을 수행하며 적외선 영상에 기존의 칼라 안개 제거 알고리즘 기법을 적용했을 때 나타나는 결과를 분석한다. 또한 근적외선 영상에서의 특징에 맞게 기존 칼라 안개 제거 기법을 수정한 기법을 제안하고 그 결과를 분석한다.

Color image dehazing techniques have been extensively studied, and especially the dark channel prior (DCP)-based method has been widely used. Near infrared (NIR) image based applications are also widespread; however, NIR image-specific dehazing techniques have not attracted great interest. In this paper, the characteristics of NIR images are analyzed and compared with the color images' characteristics. The conventional color image dehazing method is also applied to NIR images to understand its effectiveness on different frequency-band signals. Furthermore, we modify the DCP method considering the characteristics of NIR images and show that our proposed method results in improved dehazed NIR images.
