Prerequisites

• MATLAB (Our scripts has been tested on MATLAB R2015a)
• Download our trained model through this MEGA link or this Baiduyun link
• The KITTI Stereo 2015 dataset from the KITTI website

Testing on the KITTI dataset

• Compile our modified Caffe and its MATLAB interface (matcaffe), our work uses the Remap layer (both remap_layer.cpp and remap_layer.hpp) from the repo of "View Synthesis by Appearance Flow" for warping.
• Put the downloaded model "crl.caffemodel" and the "kitti_test" folder of the KITTI dataset in the "crl-release/models/crl" folder.
• Run test_kitti.m in the "crl-release/models/crl" folder for testing, our model definition deploy_kitti.prototxt is also in this folder.
• Check out the newly generated folder disp_0 and you should see the results.

Training

We do not provide the code for training. For training, we need an in-house differentiable interpolation layer developed by our company, SenseTime Group Limited. To make the code publically available, we have replaced the interpolation layer to the downsample layer of DispNet. Since the backward pass of downsample layer is not implemented, the code provided in this repo cannot be applied for training.

On the other hand, using the downsample layer provided in DispNet does not affect the performance of the network. In fact, the network definition deploy_kitti.prototxt (with downsample layer) can produced a D1-all error of 2.67% on the KITTI stereo 2015 leaderboard, exactly the same as our original CRL with the in-house interpolation layer.
