Abstract

Image processing methods are widely used to improvise the quality of an image to extract the hidden information in it. Phenomena of scattering and atmosphere absorption results inhaze smoke and fog. Weather conditions majorly influence the visual system as well as detection and identification of the targets and degrade the picture quality. In the previous year, researchers have been focused on the high-quality images or videos for enhancement as well as to detect objects. In this paper, we have reviewed previous papers and compare based on used techniques and performance parameters.
