ARDepth: Auto-regressive Monocular Depth Estimation with Progressive Visual Conditioning

Zijie Wang, Wei Zhang, Weiming Zhang, Xiao Tan, Weikai Chen, Xiaoxu Li, et al.

Diffusion models have recently become the dominant paradigm for monocular depth estimation (MDE). However, they implicitly assume that depth can be recovered as a globally smooth field through iterative denoising, which does not explicitly reflect the piecewise and scale-dependen…Read more
