Extended model architecture and loss fn to the newer paper.

Model Results:
(image, ground truth depth, model prediction)

Model Arch:

Loss Fn:

Predictions on test image:

Pros:

• Can detect object boundaries well, due to added image gradient component in the newer loss fn.
• Prediction quality is decent considering from single image

Cons:

• Model produces depthmaps at lower resolution (320x240)
• Depthmaps lack clarity
• Model is really large, ~900MB, inference time is ~2s for a mini-batch of 8 (640x480) images
