OpenDepth repurposes Image-to-Image (I2I) editing priors to improve monocular depth estimation in open-world conditions. By aligning shallow features in a Diffusion Transformer and adding a joint RGB reconstruction task, the method decouples environmental style from geometry, enabling robust depth inference across varied lighting and weather. The approach achieves new state‑of‑the‑art performance on standard and extreme weather benchmarks, maintaining structural integrity in zero‑shot settings.

arXiv:2608. 10544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image restoration is fundamentally constrained by the tradeoff between distortion and perception: minimizing pixel-wise error yields over-smoothed results, whereas optimizing for perceptual realism often introduces structural deviations.

The paper proposes that super‑resolution should be performed in a latent space that is close to the manifold of high‑resolution images, rather than in reconstruction‑oriented or pixel spaces. By using the latent space of 23 fused layers of a frozen DINOv3‑L model, degraded images are embedded near this manifold, enabling a 415M decoder (RAESR) to map them back and decode to pixels in a single pass. RAESR achieves the best fidelity–perception trade‑off on several benchmarks while running at 37 ms per 512×512 image on a single H20 GPU, outperforming models that use a VAE latent substrate.

The paper introduces NAIMA, a guided depth super‑resolution framework that leverages global contextual semantic priors from pretrained vision transformer token embeddings. Its Guided Token Attention (GTA) module uses depth encodings as queries to attend over semantic tokens, with a zero‑initialized gate controlling the influence of semantic evidence. NAIMA achieves competitive in‑distribution performance while delivering superior cross‑dataset generalization without relying on decoded priors or auxiliary objectives.
