Image Guided Depth Upsampling using Anisotropic Total Generalized Variation

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

The paper introduces a new depth image upsampling technique that tackles the low lateral resolution of modern depth cameras by formulating a convex optimization problem with higher‑order regularization. An anisotropic diffusion tensor derived from a high‑resolution intensity image guides the upsampling, and a primal‑dual algorithm is implemented for efficient, multi‑frame‑per‑second performance. Experiments on the Middlebury 2007 datasets demonstrate that this method surpasses state‑of‑the‑art approaches in both speed and accuracy, and the authors also present new datasets with precise ground truth to benchmark depth upsampling using real sensor data.

AffineGS: Unlocking Accurate Geometry in 3DGS via Spatially Varying Affine Rectification

The paper introduces AffineGS, a method that improves the geometric accuracy of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) by applying a spatially varying affine rectification to monocular depth estimates. It identifies that monocular depth networks suffer from region-dependent, piecewise-linear distortions, rendering global alignment ineffective. By employing edge-aware, regionally smooth fields and a normal-aware regularizer, AffineGS aligns disparity with 3DGS depth and normals, achieving strong photometric quality while significantly enhancing geometry across diverse experiments.

Depth Hypothesis Guided Iterative Refinement for Event-Image Monocular Depth Estimation

The paper introduces HypoDepth, an event-image monocular depth estimation framework that uses a discrete Depth Hypothesis Volume (DHV) to convert depth regression into a constrained search problem. By building a lightweight 3D cost volume between DHV features and contextual features, the method performs multi-scale correlation search for stable residual optimization, enabling efficient global-to-local refinement across resolutions. Experiments on DSEC and MVSEC show state‑of‑the‑art performance, strong zero‑shot generalization, and real‑time capability on resource‑limited devices.
