ABSTRACT
In this paper we present a novel algorithm for improving the
visibility of surveillance videos degraded by fog and/or rain.
The proposed algorithm adaptively enhances the global and

spired on the human visual system, and accounts for the per-
ceptual sensitivity to noise, compression artifacts, and the tex-
