Underwater image enhancement is a technique used to improve the quality of underwater images. Due to the unique properties of the underwater environment, images captured underwater often suffer from degradation caused by absorption and scattering of light. These effects can result in low contrast, blurred images with a dominant blue or green color cast. Enhancement techniques aim to correct these issues and improve the visibility within the image. These methods can include color correction to remove the color cast, contrast enhancement to improve the visibility of underwater objects, and dehazing techniques to reduce the scattering effect. These enhancements are crucial in various applications, including underwater exploration, marine biology research, underwater archaeology, and in improving the performance of underwater vision systems used in autonomous underwater vehicles.

Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
28 leaderboard tables shown for this task, 28 with rows (a “benchmark” on this site is a table with at least one row, as on /sota), ordered by row count. “Best model” is the first row in the archive's own order at snapshot; nothing is re-ranked here and metric direction is not recorded in the archive. PwC's Trend sparklines are not in the archive, so that column is omitted. 10 shown of 28 until expanded.
Syntology column: samples harvested from the paper's repositories and executed on synthesized fixtures; “ran” is not a correctness claim and does not order the table. A dash means no Syntology record for that paper, not a recorded non-run. Read from the graph 2026-09-24.
