Introduction

This is the official repository for Regularizing Nighttime Weirdness: Efficient Self-supervised Monocular Depth Estimation in the Dark. You can find our paper at arxiv. In this repository, we release the training and testing code, as well as the data split files of RobotCar-Night and nuScenes-Night.

Dependency

• python>=3.6
• torch>=1.7.1
• torchvision>=0.8.2
• mmcv>=1.3
• pytorch-lightning>=1.4.5
• opencv-python>=3.4
• tqdm>=4.53

Dataset

The dataset used in our work is based on RobotCar and nuScenes. Please visit their official website to download the data (We only used a part of these datasets. If you just want to run the code, (2014-12-16-18-44-24, 2014-12-09-13-21-02) of RobotCar and (Package 01, 02, 05, 09, 10) of nuScenes is enough). To produce the ground truth depth, you can use the above official toolboxes. After preparing datasets, we strongly recommend you to organize the directory structure as follows. The split files are provided in split_files/.

RobotCar-Night root directory
|__Package name (e.g. 2014-12-16-18-44-24)
   |__depth (to store the .npy ground truth depth maps)
      |__ground truth depth files
   |__rgb (to store the .png color images)
      |__color image files
   |__intrinsic.npy (to store the camera intrinsics)
   |__test_split.txt (to store the test samples)
   |__train_split.txt (to store the train samples)

nuScenes-Night root directory
|__sequences (to store sequence data)
   |__video clip number (e.g. 00590cbfa24a430a8c274b51e1c71231)
      |__file_list.txt (to store the image file names in this video clip)
      |__intrinsic.npy (to store the camera intrinsic of this video clip)
      |__image files described in file_list.txt
|__splits (to store split files)
   |__split files with name (day/night)_(train/test)_split.txt
|__test
   |__color (to store color images for testing)
   |__gt (to store ground truth depth maps w.r.t color)

Note: You also need to configure the dataset path in datasets/common.py. The original resolution of nuScenes is too high, so we reduce its resolution to half when training.

Training

Our model is trained using Distributed Data Parallel supported by Pytorch-Lightning. You can train a RNW model on one dataset through the following two steps:

1. Train a self-supervised model on daytime data, by

   python train.py mono2_(rc/ns)_day number_of_your_gpus

2. Train RNW by

   python train.py rnw_(rc/ns) number_of_your_gpus

Since there is no eval split, checkpoints will be saved every two epochs.

Testing

You can run the following commands to test on RobotCar-Night

python test_robotcar_disp.py day/night config_name checkpoint_path
cd evaluation
python eval_robotcar.py day/night

To test on nuScenes-Night, you can run

python test_nuscenes_disp.py day/night config_name checkpoint_path
cd evaluation
python eval_nuscenes.py day/night

Besides, you can use the scripts batch_eval_robotcar.py and batch_eval_nuscenes.py to automatically execute the above commands.
