Consumer-level depth cameras and depth sensors embedded in mobile devices enable numerous applications, such as AR games and face identification. However, the quality of the captured depth is sometimes insufficient for 3D reconstruction, tracking and other computer vision tasks. In this paper, we propose a self-supervised depth denoising approach to denoise and refine depth coming from a low quality sensor. We record simultaneous RGB-D sequences with unzynchronized lower- and higher-quality cameras and solve a challenging problem of aligning sequences both temporally and spatially. We then learn a deep neural network to denoise the lower-quality depth using the matched higher-quality data as a source of supervision signal. We experimentally validate our method against state-of-the-art filtering-based and deep denoising techniques and show its application for 3D object reconstruction tasks where our approach leads to more detailed fused surfaces and better tracking.

Depth perception is considered an invaluable source of information for various vision tasks. However, depth maps acquired using consumer-level sensors still suffer from non-negligible noise. This fact has recently motivated researchers to exploit tra ditional filters, as well as the deep learning paradigm, in order to suppress the aforementioned non-uniform noise, while preserving geometric details. Despite the effort, deep depth denoising is still an open challenge mainly due to the lack of clean data that could be used as ground truth. In this paper, we propose a fully convolutional deep autoencoder that learns to denoise depth maps, surpassing the lack of ground truth data. Specifically, the proposed autoencoder exploits multiple views of the same scene from different points of view in order to learn to suppress noise in a self-supervised end-to-end manner using depth and color information during training, yet only depth during inference. To enforce selfsupervision, we leverage a differentiable rendering technique to exploit photometric supervision, which is further regularized using geometric and surface priors. As the proposed approach relies on raw data acquisition, a large RGB-D corpus is collected using Intel RealSense sensors. Complementary to a quantitative evaluation, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed self-supervised denoising approach on established 3D reconstruction applications.

Previous RGB-D salient object detection (SOD) methods have widely adopted deep learning tools to automatically strike a trade-off between RGB and D (depth), whose key rationale is to take full advantage of their complementary nature, aiming for a muc h-improved SOD performance than that of using either of them solely. However, such fully automatic fusions may not always be helpful for the SOD task because the D quality itself usually varies from scene to scene. It may easily lead to a suboptimal fusion result if the D quality is not considered beforehand. Moreover, as an objective factor, the D quality has long been overlooked by previous work. As a result, it is becoming a clear performance bottleneck. Thus, we propose a simple yet effective scheme to measure D quality in advance, the key idea of which is to devise a series of features in accordance with the common attributes of high-quality D regions. To be more concrete, we conduct D quality assessments for each image region, following a multi-scale methodology that includes low-level edge consistency, mid-level regional uncertainty and high-level model variance. All these components will be computed independently and then be assembled with RGB and D features, applied as implicit indicators, to guide the selective fusion. Compared with the state-of-the-art fusion schemes, our method can achieve a more reasonable fusion status between RGB and D. Specifically, the proposed D quality measurement method achieves steady performance improvements for almost 2.0% in general.
RGB-D salient object detection (SOD) recently has attracted increasing research interest by benefiting conventional RGB SOD with extra depth information. However, existing RGB-D SOD models often fail to perform well in terms of both efficiency and ac curacy, which hinders their potential applications on mobile devices and real-world problems. An underlying challenge is that the model accuracy usually degrades when the model is simplified to have few parameters. To tackle this dilemma and also inspired by the fact that depth quality is a key factor influencing the accuracy, we propose a novel depth quality-inspired feature manipulation (DQFM) process, which is efficient itself and can serve as a gating mechanism for filtering depth features to greatly boost the accuracy. DQFM resorts to the alignment of low-level RGB and depth features, as well as holistic attention of the depth stream to explicitly control and enhance cross-modal fusion. We embed DQFM to obtain an efficient light-weight model called DFM-Net, where we also design a tailored depth backbone and a two-stage decoder for further efficiency consideration. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that our DFM-Net achieves state-of-the-art accuracy when comparing to existing non-efficient models, and meanwhile runs at 140ms on CPU (2.2$times$ faster than the prior fastest efficient model) with only $sim$8.5Mb model size (14.9% of the prior lightest). Our code will be available at https://github.com/zwbx/DFM-Net.
Existing CNNs-Based RGB-D Salient Object Detection (SOD) networks are all required to be pre-trained on the ImageNet to learn the hierarchy features which can help to provide a good initialization. However, the collection and annotation of large-scal e datasets are time-consuming and expensive. In this paper, we utilize Self-Supervised Representation Learning (SSL) to design two pretext tasks: the cross-modal auto-encoder and the depth-contour estimation. Our pretext tasks require only a few and unlabeled RGB-D datasets to perform pre-training, which makes the network capture rich semantic contexts and reduce the gap between two modalities, thereby providing an effective initialization for the downstream task. In addition, for the inherent problem of cross-modal fusion in RGB-D SOD, we propose a consistency-difference aggregation (CDA) module that splits a single feature fusion into multi-path fusion to achieve an adequate perception of consistent and differential information. The CDA module is general and suitable for both cross-modal and cross-level feature fusion. Extensive experiments on six benchmark RGB-D SOD datasets, our model pre-trained on the RGB-D dataset ($6,392$ without any annotations) can perform favorably against most state-of-the-art RGB-D methods pre-trained on ImageNet ($1,280,000$ with image-level annotations).
We present SPSG, a novel approach to generate high-quality, colored 3D models of scenes from RGB-D scan observations by learning to infer unobserved scene geometry and color in a self-supervised fashion. Our self-supervised approach learns to jointly inpaint geometry and color by correlating an incomplete RGB-D scan with a more complete version of that scan. Notably, rather than relying on 3D reconstruction losses to inform our 3D geometry and color reconstruction, we propose adversarial and perceptual losses operating on 2D renderings in order to achieve high-resolution, high-quality colored reconstructions of scenes. This exploits the high-resolution, self-consistent signal from individual raw RGB-D frames, in contrast to fused 3D reconstructions of the frames which exhibit inconsistencies from view-dependent effects, such as color balancing or pose inconsistencies. Thus, by informing our 3D scene generation directly through 2D signal, we produce high-quality colored reconstructions of 3D scenes, outperforming state of the art on both synthetic and real data.
