Abstract :
We present an algorithm to estimate 3D depth from a single monocular outdoor image based on the multiresolution analysis of the various cues including edge, hue, saturation, vertical depth prior, and dark channel prior. Our experimental results show a huge amount of computational savings over literature work while keeping our depth map close to the ground truth.
