    Abstract: A method for monocular depth/pose estimation in a camera agnostic network is described. The method includes training a monocular depth model and a monocular pose model to learn monocular depth estimation and monocular pose estimation based on a target image and context images from monocular video captured by the camera agnostic network. The method also includes lifting 3D points from image pixels of the target image according to the context images. The method further includes projecting the lifted 3D points onto an image plane according to a predicted ray vector based on the monocular depth model, the monocular pose model, and a camera center of the camera agnostic network. The method also includes predicting a warped target image from a predicted depth map of the monocular depth model, a ray surface of the predicted ray vector, and a projection of the lifted 3D points according to the camera agnostic network.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating depth models and depth maps from images obtained from an imaging system are presented. A self-supervised neural network may be capable of regularizing depth information from surface normals. Rather than rely on separate depth and surface normal networks, surface normal information is extracted from the depth information and a smoothness function is applied to the surface normals instead of a depth gradient. Smoothing the surface normal may provide improved representation of environmental structures by both smoothing texture-less areas while preserving sharp boundaries between structures.

    Abstract: A method for estimating depth is presented. The method includes generating, at each decoding layer of a neural network, decoded features of an input image. The method also includes upsampling, at each decoding layer, the decoded features to a resolution of a final output of the neural network. The method still further includes concatenating, at each decoding layer, the upsampled decoded features with features generated at a convolution layer of the neural network. The method additionally includes sequentially receiving the concatenated upsampled decoded features at a long-short term memory (LSTM) module of the neural network from each decoding layer. The method still further includes generating, at the LSTM module, a depth estimate of the input image after receiving the concatenated upsampled inverse depth estimate from a final layer of a decoder of the neural network. The method also includes controlling an action of an agent based on the depth estimate.

    Abstract: A method for depth estimation performed by a depth estimation system of an autonomous agent includes determining a first pose of a sensor based on a first image captured by the sensor and a second image captured by the sensor. The method also includes determining a first depth of the first image and a second depth of the second image. The method further includes generating a warped depth image based on at least the first depth and the first pose. The method still further includes determining a second pose based on the warped depth image and the second depth image. The method also includes updating the first pose based on the second pose and updating a first warped image based on the updated first pose.

    Abstract: A method for keypoint matching includes receiving an input image obtained by a sensor of an agent. The method also includes identifying a set of keypoints of the received image. The method further includes augmenting the descriptor of each of the keypoints with semantic information of the input image. The method also includes identifying a target image based on one or more semantically augmented descriptors of the target image matching one or more semantically augmented descriptors of the input image. The method further includes controlling an action of the agent in response to identifying the target.
