   Abs HTML PDF Code

   Monocular depth-from-defocus models are sensitive to the camera that captured the images. Using the optics of defocus blur, we show how camera parameters change the blur and propose a correction that makes a trained model work across cameras without retraining, evaluated on a new synthetic dataset, DDFF12 and NYU Depth V2.
