Towards Robust Monocular Depth Estimation: Mixing Datasets for Zero-shot Cross-dataset Transfer

This repository contains code to compute depth from a single image. It accompanies our paper:

and our preprint:

Vision Transformers for Dense Prediction

For the latest release MiDaS 3.1, a technical report and video are available.

MiDaS was trained on up to 12 datasets (ReDWeb, DIML, Movies, MegaDepth, WSVD, TartanAir, HRWSI, ApolloScape, BlendedMVS, IRS, KITTI, NYU Depth V2) with multi-objective optimization. The original model that was trained on 5 datasets (MIX 5 in the paper) can be found here. The figure below shows an overview of the different MiDaS models; the bubble size scales with number of parameters.

Setup

Pick one or more models and download the corresponding weights to the weights folder:

MiDaS 3.1

For highest quality: dpt_beit_large_512
For moderately less quality, but better speed-performance trade-off: dpt_swin2_large_384
For embedded devices: dpt_swin2_tiny_256, dpt_levit_224
For inference on Intel CPUs, OpenVINO may be used for the small legacy model: openvino_midas_v21_small .xml, .bin

MiDaS 3.0: Legacy transformer models dpt_large_384 and dpt_hybrid_384

MiDaS 2.1: Legacy convolutional models midas_v21_384 and midas_v21_small_256

Set up dependencies:

shell
1conda env create -f environment.yaml 2conda activate midas-py310

optional

For the Next-ViT model, execute

git submodule add https://github.com/isl-org/Next-ViT midas/external/next_vit

For the OpenVINO model, install

pip install openvino

Usage

Place one or more input images in the folder input.
Run the model with

python run.py --model_type <model_type> --input_path input --output_path output

where <model_type> is chosen from dpt_beit_large_512, dpt_beit_large_384, dpt_beit_base_384, dpt_swin2_large_384, dpt_swin2_base_384, dpt_swin2_tiny_256, dpt_swin_large_384, dpt_next_vit_large_384, dpt_levit_224, dpt_large_384, dpt_hybrid_384, midas_v21_384, midas_v21_small_256, openvino_midas_v21_small_256.
The resulting depth maps are written to the output folder.

optional

By default, the inference resizes the height of input images to the size of a model to fit into the encoder. This size is given by the numbers in the model names of the accuracy table. Some models do not only support a single inference height but a range of different heights. Feel free to explore different heights by appending the extra command line argument --height. Unsupported height values will throw an error. Note that using this argument may decrease the model accuracy.
By default, the inference keeps the aspect ratio of input images when feeding them into the encoder if this is supported by a model (all models except for Swin, Swin2, LeViT). In order to resize to a square resolution, disregarding the aspect ratio while preserving the height, use the command line argument --square.

via Camera

If you want the input images to be grabbed from the camera and shown in a window, leave the input and output paths away and choose a model type as shown above:

python run.py --model_type <model_type> --side

The argument --side is optional and causes both the input RGB image and the output depth map to be shown side-by-side for comparison.

via Docker

Make sure you have installed Docker and the NVIDIA Docker runtime.
Build the Docker image:

docker build -t midas .
Run inference:

docker run --rm --gpus all -v $PWD/input:/opt/MiDaS/input -v $PWD/output:/opt/MiDaS/output -v $PWD/weights:/opt/MiDaS/weights midas

This command passes through all of your NVIDIA GPUs to the container, mounts the input and output directories and then runs the inference.

via PyTorch Hub

The pretrained model is also available on PyTorch Hub

via TensorFlow or ONNX

See README in the tf subdirectory.

Currently only supports MiDaS v2.1.

via Mobile (iOS / Android)

See README in the mobile subdirectory.

via ROS1 (Robot Operating System)

See README in the ros subdirectory.

Currently only supports MiDaS v2.1. DPT-based models to be added.

Accuracy

We provide a zero-shot error $\epsilon_d$ which is evaluated for 6 different datasets (see paper). Lower error values are better. $\color{green}{\textsf{Overall model quality is represented by the improvement}}$ (Imp.) with respect to MiDaS 3.0 DPT_L-384. The models are grouped by the height used for inference, whereas the square training resolution is given by the numbers in the model names. The table also shows the number of parameters (in millions) and the frames per second for inference at the training resolution (for GPU RTX 3090):

* No zero-shot error, because models are also trained on KITTI and NYU Depth V2
$\square$ Validation performed at square resolution, either because the transformer encoder backbone of a model does not support non-square resolutions (Swin, Swin2, LeViT) or for comparison with these models. All other validations keep the aspect ratio. A difference in resolution limits the comparability of the zero-shot error and the improvement, because these quantities are averages over the pixels of an image and do not take into account the advantage of more details due to a higher resolution.
Best values per column and same validation height in bold

Improvement

The improvement in the above table is defined as the relative zero-shot error with respect to MiDaS v3.0 DPT_L-384 and averaging over the datasets. So, if $\epsilon_d$ is the zero-shot error for dataset $d$, then the $\color{green}{\textsf{improvement}}$ is given by $100(1-(1/6)\sum_d\epsilon_d/\epsilon_{d,\rm{DPT_{L-384}}})$%.

Note that the improvements of 10% for MiDaS v2.0 → v2.1 and 21% for MiDaS v2.1 → v3.0 are not visible from the improvement column (Imp.) in the table but would require an evaluation with respect to MiDaS v2.1 Large₃₈₄ and v2.0 Large₃₈₄ respectively instead of v3.0 DPT_L-384.

Applications

MiDaS is used in the following other projects from Intel Labs:

ZoeDepth (code available here): MiDaS computes the relative depth map given an image. For metric depth estimation, ZoeDepth can be used, which combines MiDaS with a metric depth binning module appended to the decoder.
LDM3D (Hugging Face model available here): LDM3D is an extension of vanilla stable diffusion designed to generate joint image and depth data from a text prompt. The depth maps used for supervision when training LDM3D have been computed using MiDaS.
