Cross View Completion

Cross-view completion is a self-supervised learning technique that trains models to reconstruct missing parts of an image using information from a second, complementary view of the same scene. Current research focuses on leveraging this approach with transformer architectures, particularly for improving performance on 3D vision tasks like depth estimation, optical flow, and human pose recovery, often using large-scale datasets. This method shows promise for advancing various applications, including robust GAN detection, autonomous navigation, and more accurate 3D human modeling, by learning more generalized and robust visual representations than traditional methods. The ability to learn from unlabeled image pairs makes it a particularly valuable tool for scenarios where labeled data is scarce.
