Image dehazing algorithm based on dark channel prior has been proved to be effective, but it cannot still guarantee accurate transmission. To solve this problem, we firstly propose a more reasonable estimation of atmospheric light, because bias in the atmospheric light estimation will cause an inaccurate transmission. Secondly, we improve the estimation of transmission in bright area so as to alleviate color distortion. After image recovery, we carry out denoising to improve the image quality. Finally, we use a blind image quality assessment method based on property of Human Visual System, and the experimental results show that this improved algorithm is more effective.
