Abstract
Single remote sensing image dehazing aims to eliminate atmospheric scattering effects without auxiliary information. It serves as a crucial preprocessing step for enhancing the performance of downstream tasks in remote sensing images. Conventional approaches often struggle to balance haze removal and detail restoration under non-uniform haze distributions. To address this issue, we propose a Dual-domain Feature Fusion Network (DFFNet) for remote sensing image dehazing. DFFNet consists of two specialized units: the Frequency Restore Unit (FRU) and the Context Extract Unit (CEU). As haze primarily manifests as low-frequency energy in the frequency domain, the FRU effectively suppresses haze across the entire image by adaptively modulating low-frequency amplitudes. Meanwhile, to reconstruct details attenuated due to dense haze occlusion, we introduce the CEU. This unit extracts multi-scale spatial features to capture contextual information, providing structural guidance for detail reconstruction. Furthermore, we introduce the Dual-Domain Feature Fusion Module (DDFFM) to establish dependencies between features from FRU and CEU via a designed attention mechanism. This leverages spatial contextual information to guide detail reconstruction during frequency domain haze removal. Experiments on the StateHaze1k, RICE and RRSHID datasets demonstrate that DFFNet achieves competitive performance in both visual quality and quantitative metrics.
