Abstract

Three-dimensional image data is generated. According to an example embodiment, three-dimensional depth information is estimated from a still image. A set of monocular images and their corresponding ground-truth depth maps are used to determine a relationship between monocular image features and the depth of image points. For different points in a particular image, the determined relationship is used together with local and global image features including monocular cues to determine relative depths of the points.
