Evaluation of CNN-based Single-Image Depth Estimation Methods
While an increasing interest in deep models for single-image depth estimation
methods can be observed, established schemes for their evaluation are still
limited. We propose a set of novel quality criteria, allowing for a more
detailed analysis by focusing on specific characteristics of depth maps. In
particular, we address the preservation of edges and planar regions, depth
consistency, and absolute distance accuracy. In order to employ these metrics
to evaluate and compare state-of-the-art single-image depth estimation
approaches, we provide a new high-quality RGB-D dataset. We used a DSLR camera
together with a laser scanner to acquire high-resolution images and highly
accurate depth maps. Experimental results show the validity of our proposed
evaluation protocol
