• Title: Consistent Depth Prediction under Various Illuminations using Dilated Cross Attention
• Authors: Zitian Zhang, Chuhua Xian
• Abstract summary: We propose to use internet 3D indoor scenes and manually tune their illuminations to render photo-realistic RGB photos and their corresponding depth and BRDF maps. We perform cross attention on these dilated features to retain the consistency of depth prediction under different illuminations. Our method is evaluated by comparing it with current state-of-the-art methods on Vari dataset and a significant improvement is observed in experiments.

• Abstract: In this paper, we aim to solve the problem of consistent depth prediction in complex scenes under various illumination conditions. The existing indoor datasets based on RGB-D sensors or virtual rendering have two critical limitations - sparse depth maps (NYU Depth V2) and non-realistic illumination (SUN CG, SceneNet RGB-D). We propose to use internet 3D indoor scenes and manually tune their illuminations to render photo-realistic RGB photos and their corresponding depth and BRDF maps, obtaining a new indoor depth dataset called Vari dataset. We propose a simple convolutional block named DCA by applying depthwise separable dilated convolution on encoded features to process global information and reduce parameters. We perform cross attention on these dilated features to retain the consistency of depth prediction under different illuminations. Our method is evaluated by comparing it with current state-of-the-art methods on Vari dataset and a significant improvement is observed in our experiments. We also conduct the ablation study, finetune our model on NYU Depth V2 and also evaluate on real-world data to further validate the effectiveness of our DCA block. The code, pre-trained weights and Vari dataset are open-sourced.

  We present ANYU, a new virtually augmented version of the NYU depth v2 dataset, designed for monocular depth estimation. In contrast to the well-known approach where full 3D scenes of a virtual world are utilized to generate artificial datasets, ANYU was created by incorporating RGB-D representations of virtual reality objects. We show that ANYU improves the monocular depth estimation performance and generalization of deep neural networks with considerably different architectures.

  We present a framework that leverages polarization imaging to improve inaccurate depth measurements from various depth sensors. Our method first adopts a learning-based strategy where a neural network is trained to estimate a dense and complete depth map from polarization data and a sensor depth map from different sensors. To further improve the performance, we propose a Polarization Prompt Fusion Tuning (PPFT) strategy to effectively utilize RGB-based models pre-trained on large-scale datasets.

The other branch applies an RGB-depth fusion CycleGAN, adept at translating RGB imagery into detailed, textured depth maps.

Experiments show that it not only significantly surpasses the depth-based RGB-D SOD methods on multiple datasets, but also precisely predicts a high-quality depth map and salient contour at the same time.
