arXiv:2607. 12433v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion models have recently become the dominant paradigm for monocular depth estimation (MDE).
Dual-pixel (DP) imaging enables metric depth estimation from a single camera using sub-aperture disparity. However, the extremely small effective baseline limits disparity observability, leading to structural degradation and depth failure in textureless, low-contrast, or downsampled regions.
Text-to-image (T2I) models contain rich spatial priors. Synthesizing photorealistic, cluttered scenes requires an understanding of geometry, including perspective and relative scale.
arXiv:2601. 22054v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scaling has powered recent advances in vision foundation models, yet extending this paradigm to metric depth estimation remains challenging due to heterogeneous sensor noise, camera-dependent biases, and metric ambiguity in noisy cross-source 3D data.
arXiv:2606. 29600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A faithful 3D world representation should account for layered geometry, where a single camera ray may contain multiple visible and geometrically valid surfaces.
