Outline

BRIDGE is a framework for single-camera depth estimation (MDE). It generates over 20 million realistic, geometrically accurate RGB images and corresponding ground truth depth information using an optimized depth-to-image (D2I) generation method using reinforcement learning (RL). Based on this data, a depth estimation model is trained using a hybrid supervised learning strategy that combines teacher pseudo-labels and ground truth depth information. BRIDGE achieves innovation in scale and domain diversity, outperforming existing state-of-the-art methods.
