Hello, thank you for this awesome work!

I'm currently working on a monocular depth estimation project using Raspberry Pi and RT-MDE, and I found your repository extremely helpful.

I noticed that the preprocessed dataset (kitti_preprocessed.zip) mentioned in the Releases is no longer available. Could you please:

  • Re-upload the dataset if possible?
  • Or share an alternate download link?
  • Or let me know how I can reproduce the same preprocessing (resize, normalization, pairing, etc.)?

Also, can you confirm if the pretrained weights provided (e.g., .pth) were trained only on KITTI, and whether they are compatible with your latest model definition?

Thanks again for the great repo!

Hi @nitheshrg-1, thanks for your interest - sounds like a neat project.

I think the preprocessed dataset should be straightforward to recreate. (Unfortunately, it looks like .zip has been removed from the storage site I was using. I'm not sure if I still have a local copy). To recreate the dataset, just 1) resize the images to 192x640 and 2) run them through the fill_depth_colorization function in utils/fill_depth_colorization.py.

Yes, I believe the pretrained weights were only trained on KITTI - though some of the backbones were pretrained on ImageNet data. I'd expect them to be compatible with the latest model definition.

I'd also encourage you to check out more modern (and better performing!) monocular depth estimation models like Depth Pro and Depth Anything.

Good luck with your project!
