This technical report briefly introduces to the D^3Net proposed by our team "TUK-IKLAB" for Atmospheric Turbulence Mitigation in UG2^+ Challenge at CVPR 2022. In the light of test and validation results on textual images to improve text recognition performance and hot-air balloon images for image enhancement, we can say that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance. Furthermore, we also provide a visual comparison with publicly available denoising, deblurring, and frame averaging methods with respect to the proposed work. The proposed method ranked 2nd on the final leader-board of the aforementioned challenge in the testing phase, respectively.
