Researchers have developed PXDepth, a novel monocular depth estimation model designed to better preserve fine-grained structures and object boundaries. Unlike previous methods that combine large-patch ViT encoders with convolutional decoders, PXDepth separates global context modeling from pixel-level prediction. It utilizes a large-patch ViT for global scene context and a Context-Modulated Pixel Transformer for high-resolution spatial representations, enabling accurate local geometry and global depth consistency.
