New self-supervised AI estimates depth and pose for endoscopy

Researchers have developed a new self-supervised framework for estimating depth and pose in endoscopic videos. This method utilizes a Generative Latent Bank trained on natural images to improve depth prediction realism and robustness. Additionally, it reframes pose estimation within a Variational Autoencoder to stabilize predictions and enhance accuracy. Evaluations on SimCol and EndoSLAM datasets show this approach outperforms existing self-supervised methods for endoscopic applications. AI

    Self-supervised Monocular Depth and Pose Estimation for Endoscopy with Latent Priors

    arXiv:2411.17790v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Accurate 3D mapping in endoscopy enables quantitative, holistic lesion characterization within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, requiring reliable depth and pose estimation. However, endoscopy systems are monocular, and ex…
