Abstract. The images acquired in haze conditions are significantly degraded due to the presence of atmospheric particles. These images have low contrast, poor visibility, and some information is lost as well. These characteristics severely hinder the further processing and the applications in which the images are being used. The polarimetric dehazing methods are effective for direct imaging and enhancing the imaging quality. In addition, polarimetric dehazing methods have the capability to cope with haze and other turbid mediums. Therefore, the polarimetric dehazing methods are extensively developed and used in different applications due to their superior performance. We present in detail the principles, the implementation techniques, and the advancements in the polarimetric dehazing methods. We believe that this work is the first in-depth review on the passive polarimetric dehazing methods.
