The existing dehazing algorithms are problematic because of dense haze being unevenly distributed on the images, and the deep convolutional dehazing network relying too greatly on large-scale datasets. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a generative adversarial network based on the deep symmetric Encoder-Decoder architecture for removing dense haze. To restore the clear image, a four-layer down-sampling encoder is constructed to extract the semantic information lost due to the dense haze. At the same time, in the symmetric decoder module, an attention mechanism is introduced to adaptively assign weights to different pixels and channels, so as to deal with the uneven distribution of haze. Finally, the framework of the generative adversarial network is generated so that the model achieves a better training effect on small-scale datasets. The experimental results showed that the proposed dehazing network can not only effectively remove the unevenly distributed dense haze in the real scene image, but also achieve great performance in real-scene datasets with less training samples, and the evaluation indexes are better than other widely used contrast algorithms.
