Problems solved by technology

However, the global depth relationship obtained by using the layout structure and semantic information is not fine enough, and often does not match the actual depth information.
[0005] Aiming at the problem of unsatisfactory depth estimation results above, this paper proposes a road target depth estimation based on ground clue propagation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a road target depth estimation method based on ground clue propagation. Depth inference and estimation of a scene target are realized through obtaining depth distribution of the vertical object scene in contact with the ground and utilizing the edge blocking orientation relationship among regions. Firstly, over-segmented super-pixels of a road image are obtained, the over-segmented super-pixels are traversed sequentially, and region merging is performed according to the RGB average color to generate a target region; secondly, vanishing points of and image surface marksof the road image are extracted, for the vertical object region, Gaussian probability distribution estimation is utilized to extract the depth of the segmentation region; thirdly, according to the shared boundary of the segmentation region, an edge blocking orientation detector is constructed, and the edge blocking relationship among the segmented regions is extracted; and lastly, ground clue propagation is utilized till the scene depth relationship is stable, the target depth is outputted, and scene target depth estimation is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of scene depth estimation, and more particularly, relates to a road target depth estimation method based on ground clue propagation. Background technique [0002] The depth in the vision system is a measure of the vertical distance between the observed object and the imaging plane, and is an important 2.5-dimensional information representation that converts the two-dimensional plane captured by ordinary sensor equipment into a three-dimensional structure description. In computer vision, depth estimation helps guide humans to perform 3D reality simulation of scenes, and also has broad application prospects in road monitoring equipment, robot navigation and other fields. Due to the complexity of real road scenes, recovering the depth information of road objects from a single image presents multiple challenges. [0003] The monocular image depth information estimation mainly relies on some monocular depth cues...
