Scene Prior Filtering for Depth Super-Resolution
About
Multi-modal fusion serves as a cornerstone for successful depth map super-resolution. However, commonly used fusion strategies, such as addition and concatenation, fall short of effectively bridging the modal gap. As a result, guided image filtering methods have been introduced to mitigate this issue. Nevertheless, it is observed that their filter kernels usually encounter significant texture interference and edge inaccuracy. To tackle these two challenges, we introduce a Scene Prior Filtering network, SPFNet, which utilizes the priors' surface normal and semantic map from large-scale models. Specifically, we propose an All-in-one Prior Propagation that computes similarity between multi-modal scene priors, i.e., RGB, normal, semantic, and depth, to reduce the texture interference. Besides, we design a One-to-one Prior Embedding that continuously embeds every single modal prior into depth using Mutual Guided Filtering, further alleviating texture interference while enhancing edge representations. Our SPFNet has been extensively evaluated on both real-world and synthetic datasets, achieving state-of-the-art performance.
