The proposed method consists mainly of image feature extraction, haze removal, and image reconstruction. To accomplish this challenging task, we propose an architecture based on transformers, which have been recently introduced and have shown great potential in different computer vision tasks. Our model is based on the SwinIR an image restoration architecture based on a transformer, but by modifying the deep feature extraction module, the depth level of the model, and by applying a combined loss function that improves styling and adapts the model for the non-homogeneous haze removal present in images. The obtained results prove to be superior to those obtained by state-of-the-art models.", optnote="MSIAU; no proj", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=3803), last updated on Thu, 27 Apr 2023 14:54:56 +0200", doi="10.1109/SITIS57111.2022.00037", opturl="16th IEEE Int.
