Study a quality of the Hazy image by using YIQ color space

Abstract

Determining the quality of the hazy image is difficult problem, thus these images need to analyzing after determined the quality or dehazing. In this paper, we analyzed the hazy(by the dust) images depending on YIQ color space. First we designed the system captured images which graded for high to very low hazy (by adding the dust) by using HeNe laser, in these images we calculated the Normalize Mean Square error (NMSE) for each components in YIQ and RGB color space, and the basic components in the Structure Similarity Index (SSIM) are (contrast, structure and luminance) moreover the mean for all has been calculated. We can see the lightness (in YIQ) and luminance ( in SSIM) component are not effected by the dust whereas the  chromatic components are highly effected by the dust.
