Real-World Atmospheric Turbulence Correction via Domain Adaptation

Atmospheric turbulence, a common phenomenon in daily life, is primarily caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface. This phenomenon results in distorted and blurred acquired images or videos and can significantly impact downstream vision tasks, particularly those that rely on capturing clear, stable images or videos from outdoor environments, such as accurately detecting or recognizing objects. Therefore, people have proposed ways to simulate atmospheric turbulence and designed effective deep learning-based methods to remove the atmospheric turbulence effect. However, …
