Superposition of dual image fusion with improved dehazing methods for high visibility of underwater image

Limited visibility is one of the problem in underwater imagery. As the images captured in deep blue or green ocean, the visibility becomes restricted as the color spectrum is filtered or absorbed by the water medium. This results the objects to be hardly seen and differentiated from the background....
