Neuromorphic Monocular Depth Estimation with Uncertainty Modeling

Event cameras offer distinct advantages over conventional frame-based sensors, including microsecond-level temporal resolution, high dynamic range, and low bandwidth. In this paper, we predict per-pixel depth distributions from monocular event streams using deep neural networks. We estimate uncertainty using Gaussian, log-normal, and evidential learning frameworks. We compare six event representations: spatio-temporal voxel grids with 1, 5, 10, and 20 temporal bins, the Compact Spatio-Temporal Representation (CSTR), and Time-Ordered Recent Event (TORE) volumes. Our U-Net-based models are trained on synthetic data and then fine-tuned on real sequences. We evaluate performance using absolute relative error, root mean squared error, and the area under the sparsification error. Quantitative results show that the representations perform similarly, while 10 bin log-normal and 5 bin evidential learning perform best across metrics. Our experiments demonstrate that uncertainty estimation can be successfully integrated into event-based monocular depth estimation, and be used to indicate pixels with reliable depth.

Robust Fundamental Matrix Estimation from Single Image Motion Blur

In this paper, we introduce a challenging task: extracting a fundamental matrix from a single motion blurred image. For a camera moving in 3D during exposure, the smear paths in the blurry image contain cues and constraints on this motion. We demonstrate the feasibility of establishing correspondences between two time instances within the camera exposure window, and that these can be used to robustly infer a fundamental matrix, which summarizes the motion of the camera during the exposure time. The inferred fundamental matrix is unique up to a transpose, corresponding to an ambiguity of the direction of time. Due to this per-smear ambiguity, classic methods, such as the 8-point algorithm, are no longer usable. The proposed method modifies the estimation to work on time-direction ambiguous correspondences. To improve the robustness of the fundamental matrix estimation, we also propose to incorporate an uncertainty measurement in smear pattern prediction and use it in the sampling process of the estimator. Experiments on synthetic and real-world motion-blur datasets demonstrate that our approach is able to estimate the fundamental matrix encoding the 3D camera motion, from single frames. Practical applicability is demonstrated on the downstream task of motion segmentation.

Efficient Multi-Frequency Phase Unwrapping using Kernel Density Estimation

In this paper we introduce an efficient method to unwrap multi-frequency phase estimates for time-of-flight ranging. The algorithm generates multiple depth hypotheses and uses a spatial kernel density estimate (KDE) to rank them. The confidence produced by the KDE is also an effective means to detect outliers. We also introduce a new closed-form expression for phase noise prediction, that better fits real data. The method is applied to depth decoding for the Kinect v2 sensor, and compared to the Microsoft Kinect SDK and to the open source driver libfreenect2. The intended Kinect v2 use case is scenes with less than 8m range, and for such cases we observe consistent improvements, while maintaining real-time performance. When extending the depth range to the maximal value of 8.75m, we get about 52% more valid measurements than libfreenect2. The effect is that the sensor can now be used in large depth scenes, where it was previously not a good choice.
