Underwater optical images are usually influenced by low lighting, high turbidity scattering and wavelength absorption. In order to solve these issues, a great deal of work has been used to improve the quality of underwater images. Most of them used the high-intensity LED for lighting to obtain the high contrast images. However, in high turbidity water, high-intensity LED causes strong scattering and absorption. In this paper, we firstly propose a light field imaging approach for solving underwater depth map estimation problems in low-intensity lighting environment. As a solution, we tackle the problem of de-scattering from light field images by using deep convolutional neural fields in depth estimation. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method through challenging real world underwater imaging.
