Researchers have developed Marigold-SSD, a novel single-step diffusion framework for depth completion that significantly reduces inference time. By transferring computational load from testing to fine-tuning, the method achieves efficient and robust 3D perception suitable for real-world latency requirements. Marigold-SSD demonstrates strong zero-shot performance and cross-domain generalization across multiple benchmarks, narrowing the efficiency gap between diffusion-based and discriminative models. AI
