Efficient Unpaired Image Dehazing with Cyclic Perceptual-Depth Supervision
share
Image dehazing without paired haze-free images is of immense importance, as acquiring paired images often entails significant cost. However, we observe that previous unpaired image dehazing approaches tend to suffer from performance degradation near depth borders, where depth tends to vary abruptly. Hence, we propose to anneal the depth border degradation in unpaired image dehazing with cyclic perceptual-depth supervision. Coupled with the dual-path feature re-using backbones of the generators and discriminators, our model achieves 20.36 Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) on NYU Depth V2 dataset, significantly outperforming its predecessors with reduced Floating Point Operations (FLOPs).
