Boosting Monocular Depth Estimation Models to High-Resolution via Content-Adaptive Multi-Resolution Merging

This repository contains an implementation of our CVPR2021 publication:

Boosting Monocular Depth Estimation Models to High-Resolution via Content-Adaptive Multi-Resolution Merging. S. Mahdi H. Miangoleh, Sebastian Dille, Long Mai, Sylvain Paris, Yağız Aksoy. Main pdf, Supplementary pdf, Project Page.

Change log:

• Google Colaboratory notebook is now available [June 2021]
• Merge net training dataset generation instructions is now available. [June 2021]
• bug fix [June 2021]

Setup

We Provided the implementation of our method using MiDas-v2 and SGRnet as the base.

Environments

Our mergenet model is trained using torch 0.4.1 and python 3.6 and is tested with torch<=1.8.

Download our mergenet model weights from here and put it in

.\pix2pix\checkpoints\mergemodel\latest_net_G.pth

To use MiDas-v2 as base: Install dependancies as following:

conda install pytorch torchvision opencv cudatoolkit=10.2 -c pytorch
conda install matplotlib
conda install scipy
conda install scikit-image

Download the model weights from MiDas-v2 and put it in

./midas/model.pt

activate the environment
python run.py --Final --data_dir PATH_TO_INPUT --output_dir PATH_TO_RESULT --depthNet 0

To use SGRnet as base: Install dependancies as following:

conda install pytorch=0.4.1 cuda92 -c pytorch
conda install torchvision
conda install matplotlib
conda install scikit-image
pip install opencv-python

Follow the official SGRnet repository to compile the syncbn module in ./structuredrl/models/syncbn. Download the model weights from SGRnet and put it in

./structuredrl/model.pth.tar

activate the environment
python run.py --Final --data_dir PATH_TO_INPUT --output_dir PATH_TO_RESULT --depthNet 1

Different input arguments can be used to generate R0 and R20 results as discussed in the paper.

python run.py --R0 --data_dir PATH_TO_INPUT --output_dir PATH_TO_RESULT --depthNet #[0or1]
python run.py --R20 --data_dir PATH_TO_INPUT --output_dir PATH_TO_RESULT --depthNet #[0or1]

Evaluation

Fill in the needed variables in the following matlab file and run:

./evaluation/evaluatedataset.m

• estimation_path : path to estimated disparity maps
• gt_depth_path : path to gt depth/disparity maps
• dataset_disp_gttype : (true) if ground truth data is disparity and (false) if gt depth data is depth.
• evaluation_matfile_save_dir : directory to save the evalution results as .mat file.
• superpixel_scale : scale parameter to run the superpixels on scaled version of the ground truth images to accelarate the evaluation. use 1 for small gt images.

Training

Navigate to dataset preparation instructions to download and prepare the training dataset.

python ./pix2pix/train.py --dataroot DATASETDIR --name mergemodeltrain --model pix2pix4depth --no_flip --no_dropout

python ./pix2pix/test.py --dataroot DATASETDIR --name mergemodeleval --model pix2pix4depth --no_flip --no_dropout

Credits

The "Merge model" code skeleton (./pix2pix folder) was adapted from the pytorch-CycleGAN-and-pix2pix repository.

For MiDaS and SGR inferences we used the scripts and models from MiDas-v2 and SGRnet respectively (./midas and ./structuredrl folders).

Thanks to k-washi for providing us with a Google Colaboratory notebook implementation.
