Abstract | |||||
High quality depth images are required for accurate 3D modeling of a facility. However, depth images captured using a typical commercially available RGB-D camera include much noise. Recently, methods using deep learning for depth enhancement have been developed. As described herein, we developed a novel method to create a high-quality dataset by generating high-quality depth images with pixel-wise depth enhancement, which is less affected by camera pose estimation errors. Furthermore, our method improves the quality of the entire dataset by post-processing suitable for our depth enhancement process. Comparison with the dataset created using the existing method showed that datasets created using the proposed method are suitable for training a network for depth enhancement. Depth images taken inside the Fugen Decommissioning Engineering Center are processed by a network trained on the dataset. The network completed the missing areas more correctly and removed the noise while maintaining the detail shapes. |
