• Abstract: This paper as technology report is focusing on evaluation and performance about depth estimations based on lidar data and stereo images(front left and front right). The lidar 3d cloud data and stereo images are provided by ford. In addition, this paper also will explain some details about optimization for depth estimation performance. And some reasons why not use machine learning to do depth estimation, replaced by pure mathmatics to do stereo depth estimation. The structure of this paper is made of by following:(1) Performance: to discuss and evaluate about depth maps created from stereo images and 3D cloud points, and relationships analysis for alignment and errors;(2) Depth estimation by stereo images: to explain the methods about how to use stereo images to estimate depth;(3)Depth estimation by lidar: to explain the methods about how to use 3d cloud datas to estimate depth;In summary, this report is mainly to show the performance of depth maps and their approaches, analysis for them.

  We propose a two-stage framework that first predicts depth up to an unknown scale and shift from a single monocular image. We then exploits 3D point cloud data to predict the depth shift and the camera's focal length that allow us to recover 3D scene shapes. We test our depth model on nine unseen datasets and achieve state-of-the-art performance on zero-shot evaluation.
