Depth Estimation of Monocular PCB Image Based on Self-Supervised Convolution Network

Abstract

To improve the accuracy of using deep neural networks to predict the depth information of a single image, we proposed an unsupervised convolutional neural network for single-image depth estimation. Firstly, the network is improved by introducing a dense residual module into the encoding and decoding structure. Secondly, the optimized hybrid attention module is introduced into the network. Finally, stereo image is used as the training data of the network to realize the end-to-end single-image depth estimation. The experimental results on KITTI and Cityscapes data sets show that compared with some classical algorithms, our proposed method can obtain better accuracy and lower error. In addition, we train our models on PCB data sets in industrial environments. Experiments in several scenarios verify the generalization ability of the proposed method and the excellent performance of the model.
