Abstract
A computer system generates stereo image data from monocular images. The system generates depth maps for single images using a monocular depth estimation method. The system converts the depth maps to disparity maps and uses the disparity maps to generate additional images forming stereo pairs with the monocular images. The stereo pairs can be used to form a stereo image training data set for training various models, including depth estimation models or stereo matching models.
