Abstract: A monocular image often does not contain enough information to determine, with certainty, the depth of an object in a scene reflected in the image. Combining image data and LIDAR data may enable determining a depth estimate of the object relative to the camera. Specifically, LIDAR points corresponding to a region of interest (“ROI”) in the image that corresponds to the object may be combined with the image data. These LIDAR points may be scored according to a monocular image model and/or a factor based on a distance between projections of the LIDAR points into the ROI and a center of the region of interest may improve the accuracy of the depth estimate. Using these scores as weights in a weighted median of the LIDAR points may improve the accuracy of the depth estimate, for example, by discerning between a detected object and an occluding object and/or background.
