Monocular depth estimation enables 3D perception from a single 2D image, thus attracting much research attention for years. Almost all methods treat foreground and background regions ("things and stuff") in an image equally. However, not…
Depth Estimation has wide reaching applications in the field of Computer vision such as target tracking, augmented reality, and self-driving cars. The goal of Monocular Depth Estimation is to predict the depth map, given a 2D monocular RGB…
The most recent trend in estimating the 6D pose of rigid objects has been to train deep networks to either directly regress the pose from the image or to predict the 2D locations of 3D keypoints, from which the pose can be obtained using a…
The self-supervised learning of depth and pose from monocular sequences provides an attractive solution by using the photometric consistency of nearby frames as it depends much less on the ground-truth data. In this paper, we address the…
