This work presents Depth Anything, a highly practical solution for robust monocular depth estimation by training on a combination of 1.5M labeled images and 62M+ unlabeled images.

Features of Depth Anything

• Relative depth estimation:

  Our foundation models listed here can provide relative depth estimation for any given image robustly. Please refer here for details.

• Metric depth estimation

  We fine-tune our Depth Anything model with metric depth information from NYUv2 or KITTI. It offers strong capabilities of both in-domain and zero-shot metric depth estimation. Please refer here for details.

• Better depth-conditioned ControlNet

  We re-train a better depth-conditioned ControlNet based on Depth Anything. It offers more precise synthesis than the previous MiDaS-based ControlNet. Please refer here for details.

• Downstream high-level scene understanding

  The Depth Anything encoder can be fine-tuned to downstream high-level perception tasks, e.g., semantic segmentation, 86.2 mIoU on Cityscapes and 59.4 mIoU on ADE20K. Please refer here for details.

Performance

Here we compare our Depth Anything with the previously best MiDaS v3.1 BEiT_L-512 model.

Please note that the latest MiDaS is also trained on KITTI and NYUv2, while we do not.

Method	Params	KITTI		NYUv2		Sintel		DDAD		ETH3D		DIODE
		AbsRel	$\delta_1$	AbsRel	$\delta_1$	AbsRel	$\delta_1$	AbsRel	$\delta_1$	AbsRel	$\delta_1$	AbsRel	$\delta_1$
MiDaS	345.0M	0.127	0.850	0.048	0.980	0.587	0.699	0.251	0.766	0.139	0.867	0.075	0.942
Ours-S	24.8M	0.080	0.936	0.053	0.972	0.464	0.739	0.247	0.768	0.127	0.885	0.076	0.939
Ours-B	97.5M	0.080	0.939	0.046	0.979	0.432	0.756	0.232	0.786	0.126	0.884	0.069	0.946
Ours-L	335.3M	0.076	0.947	0.043	0.981	0.458	0.760	0.230	0.789	0.127	0.882	0.066	0.952

We highlight the best and second best results in bold and italic respectively (better results: AbsRel $\downarrow$ , $\delta_1 \uparrow$).

Pre-trained models

We provide three models of varying scales for robust relative depth estimation:

Model	Params	Inference Time on V100 (ms)	A100	RTX4090 (TensorRT)
Depth-Anything-Small	24.8M	12	8	3
Depth-Anything-Base	97.5M	13	9	6
Depth-Anything-Large	335.3M	20	13	12

Note that the V100 and A100 inference time (without TensorRT) is computed by excluding the pre-processing and post-processing stages, whereas the last column RTX4090 (with TensorRT) is computed by including these two stages. See here for details.

You can easily load our pre-trained models by:

from depth_anything.dpt import DepthAnything

encoder = 'vits' # can also be 'vitb' or 'vitl'
depth_anything = DepthAnything.from_pretrained('LiheYoung/depth_anything_{:}14'.format(encoder))

No network connection, cannot load these models?

Click here for solutions

• First, please manually download our models (both config and checkpoints files) from here: depth-anything-small, depth-anything-base, and depth-anything-large.

• Second, upload the folder which contains config and checkpoint files to your remote server.

• Lastly, load the model locally by:

# suppose the config and checkpoint files are stored under the folder checkpoints/depth_anything_vitb14
depth_anything = DepthAnything.from_pretrained('checkpoints/depth_anything_vitb14', local_files_only=True)

Usage

Installation

git clone https://github.com/LiheYoung/Depth-Anything
cd Depth-Anything
pip install -r requirements.txt

Running

python run.py --encoder <vits | vitb | vitl> --img-path <img-directory | single-img | txt-file> --outdir <outdir>

For the img-path, you can either 1) point it to an image directory storing all interested images, 2) point it to a single image, or 3) point it to a text file storing all image paths.

For example:

python run.py --encoder vitl --img-path assets/examples --outdir depth_visualization

Gradio demo

To use our gradio demo locally:

python app.py

You can also try our online demo.

Import Depth Anything to your project

If you want to use Depth Anything in your own project, you can simply follow run.py to load our models and define data pre-processing.

Code snippet (note the difference between our data pre-processing and that of MiDaS)

from depth_anything.dpt import DepthAnything
from depth_anything.util.transform import Resize, NormalizeImage, PrepareForNet

import cv2
import torch

encoder = 'vits' # can also be 'vitb' or 'vitl'
depth_anything = DepthAnything.from_pretrained('LiheYoung/depth_anything_{:}14'.format(encoder))

transform = Compose([
    Resize(
        width=518,
        height=518,
        resize_target=False,
        keep_aspect_ratio=True,
        ensure_multiple_of=14,
        resize_method='lower_bound',
        image_interpolation_method=cv2.INTER_CUBIC,
    ),
    NormalizeImage(mean=[0.485, 0.456, 0.406], std=[0.229, 0.224, 0.225]),
    PrepareForNet(),
])

image = cv2.cvtColor(cv2.imread('your image path'), cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB) / 255.0
image = transform({'image': image})['image']
image = torch.from_numpy(image).unsqueeze(0)

# depth shape: 1xHxW
depth = depth_anything(image)
