Researchers have introduced Marigold V2, an advancement in monocular depth estimation that repurposes diffusion transformers for improved accuracy and detail. This new method utilizes single-step flow-matching inference and semantic alignment, alongside a novel Sinkhorn-based fine-tuning protocol. The results are sharper depth maps that generalize better to out-of-distribution data, showing significant improvements on benchmarks like KITTI and ETH3D, and also performing well on related dense regression tasks.
