Rethinking Deep Learning based Monocular Depth Prediction

We are looking for a motivated student who wants to work in the topic of monocular depth prediction using deep learning. Predicting depth maps from a single color image is a challenging and under-constrained task, and as such, active research is happening that incorporates CNNs. Recent works typically do not explicitly enforce an understanding for the objects in the scene. In contrast, our goal is to rethink depth prediction and create an object-aware model, which might lead to more accurate depth.

Prerequisites: Good python skills and basic deep learning experience.
