Abstract

Obtaining 3D depth of a scene is essential to alleviate a number of challenges in computer vision tasks. A great variety of computational stereo approaches have been proposed to infer a depth map when two (or more) images are given as inputs. Recently, monocular depth estimation that aims to estimate the depth map from a single image has been studied actively thanks to the widespread of deep neural networks. This talk introduces our recent works for the monocular depth estimation, including constructing a large-scale RGB+D dataset and novel convolutional neural networks based algorithms. We first present the massive RGB+D dataset, called DIML/CVL dataset, which provides 1M color images and associated depth maps taken in outdoor environments. This includes several pre-processing algorithms and detailed performance analysis of our dataset. Then, we introduce a novel approach for monocular depth estimation based on a deep variational model.
