Title: Surface Normals in the Wild,
Abstract: We study the problem of single-image depth estimation for images in the wild.
We collect human annotated surface normals and use them to train a neural
network that directly predicts pixel-wise depth. We propose two novel loss
functions for training with surface normal annotations. Experiments on NYU
Depth and our own dataset demonstrate that our approach can significantly
improve the quality of depth estimation in the wild.
