PDS：Polarization-Driven Solution to Combined Scattering and Uneven Illumination in Underwater Imagery

Datasets

Experimental Underwater Polarization Data will be released when the paper is accepted.

Real Underwater Polarization Data will be released when the paper is accepted.

Some selected Original Mosaicked images can be viewed under this path. We use a polarization camera with micro polarization filters array (LUCID, PHX050S), whose spatial resolution is 2448 × 2048.

The acquired mosaicked polarization image can be demosaicked using PCDC or Demosaicking-DoFP-images-using-Newton-polynomial-interpolation-and-polarization-difference-model.

Real Underwater Polarization Data Examples

Code

Code has been released.

Please place the original polarized mosaic image in the inputs folder, and then run Demo.m.

Videos

For proper webpage display, all videos have been downsampled. The original videos are available for download in the Datasets section.
