FaSS-MVS -- Fast Multi-View Stereo with Surface-Aware Semi-Global Matching from UAV-borne Monocular Imagery

no code implementations1 Dec 2021 Boitumelo Ruf, Martin Weinmann, Stefan Hinz

With FaSS-MVS, we present an approach for fast multi-view stereo with surface-aware Semi-Global Matching that allows for rapid depth and normal map estimation from monocular aerial video data captured by UAVs.

ReS2tAC -- UAV-Borne Real-Time SGM Stereo Optimized for Embedded ARM and CUDA Devices

no code implementations15 Jun 2021 Boitumelo Ruf, Jonas Mohrs, Martin Weinmann, Stefan Hinz, Jürgen Beyerer

In this, we propose an optimization of the algorithm for embedded CUDA GPUs, by using massively parallel computing, as well as using the NEON intrinsics to optimize the algorithm for vectorized SIMD processing on embedded ARM CPUs.

Self-Supervised Learning for Monocular Depth Estimation from Aerial Imagery

1 code implementation17 Aug 2020 Max Hermann, Boitumelo Ruf, Martin Weinmann, Stefan Hinz

Therefore, in this paper, we present a method for self-supervised learning for monocular depth estimation from aerial imagery that does not require annotated training data.

Automatic Co-Registration of Aerial Imagery and Untextured Model Data Utilizing Average Shading Gradients

no code implementations26 Jun 2019 Sylvia Schmitz, Martin Weinmann, Boitumelo Ruf

These correspondences are then used in an iterative optimization scheme to refine the initial camera pose by minimizing the reprojection error.

Real-time on-board obstacle avoidance for UAVs based on embedded stereo vision

no code implementations17 Jul 2018 Boitumelo Ruf, Sebastian Monka, Matthias Kollmann, Michael Grinberg

Obstacle avoidance is based on a reactive approach which finds the shortest path around the obstacles as soon as they have a critical distance to the UAV.

Disparity Estimation

Deep cross-domain building extraction for selective depth estimation from oblique aerial imagery

no code implementations23 Apr 2018 Boitumelo Ruf, Laurenz Thiel, Martin Weinmann

We use transfer learning to train the Faster R-CNN method for real-time deep object detection, by combining a large ground-based dataset for urban scene understanding with a smaller number of images from an aerial dataset.
