CSGL-Former: Cross-Stripes Global-Local Fusion Transformer for Remote Sensing Image Dehazing.

Remote sensing (RS) images are often degraded by atmospheric haze, which compromises both visual interpretation and downstream applications. To address this, we introduce CSGL-Former, a novel Cross-Stripes Global-Local Fusion Transformer for RS image dehazing. Our model efficiently captures anisotropic long-range dependencies using cross-stripes attention (CSA) and aggregates hierarchical global semantics via a Multi-Layer Global Aggregation (MLGA) module. In the decoder, global context is adaptively blended with fine-grained local features to restore intricate textures. Finally, inspired by the atmospheric scattering model, a soft reconstruction head restores the clear image by predicting spatially varying affine parameters, strictly preserving content fidelity while effectively removing haze. Trained end-to-end, CSGL-Former demonstrates a compelling balance of accuracy and efficiency. Extensive experiments on the RRSHID and SateHaze1K benchmarks show that our model achieves state-of-the-art or highly competitive performance against representative baselines. Ablation studies further validate the effectiveness of each proposed component.
