Abstract
A method for depth estimation performed by a depth estimation system of an autonomous agent includes determining a first pose of a sensor based on a first image captured by the sensor and a second image captured by the sensor. The method also includes determining a first depth of the first image and a second depth of the second image. The method further includes generating a warped depth image based on at least the first depth and the first pose. The method still further includes determining a second pose based on the warped depth image and the second depth image. The method also includes updating the first pose based on the second pose and updating a first warped image based on the updated first pose.
