Abstract

In this paper, we propose the convolutional spatial propagation network (CSPN) and demonstrate its effectiveness for various depth estimation tasks. CSPN is a simple and efficient linear propagation model, where the propagation is performed with a manner of recurrent convolutional operations, in which the affinity among neighboring pixels is learned through a deep convolutional neural network (CNN). Compare to the previous state-of-the-art (SOTA) linear propagation model, i.e., spatial propagation networks (SPN), CSPN is 2 to 5× faster in practice. We concatenate CSPN and its variants to SOTA depth estimation networks, which significantly improve the depth accuracy. Specifically, we apply CSPN to two depth estimation problems: depth completion and stereo matching, in which we design modules which adapts the original 2D CSPN to embed sparse depth samples during the propagation, operate with 3D convolution and be synergistic with spatial pyramid pooling. In our experiments, we show that all these modules contribute to the final performance. For the task of depth completion, our method reduce the depth error over 30 percent in the NYU v2 and KITTI datasets. For the task of stereo matching, our method currently ranks 1st on both the KITTI Stereo 2012 and 2015 benchmarks.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
