  Supervised deep learning methods have shown promising results for the task of
monocular depth estimation; but acquiring ground truth is costly, and prone to
noise as well as inaccuracies. While synthetic datasets have been used to
circumvent above problems, the resultant models do not generalize well to
natural scenes due to the inherent domain shift. Recent adversarial approaches
for domain adaption have performed well in mitigating the differences between
the source and target domains. But these methods are mostly limited to a
classification setup and do not scale well for fully-convolutional
architectures. In this work, we propose AdaDepth - an unsupervised domain
adaptation strategy for the pixel-wise regression task of monocular depth
estimation. The proposed approach is devoid of above limitations through a)
adversarial learning and b) explicit imposition of content consistency on the
adapted target representation. Our unsupervised approach performs competitively
with other established approaches on depth estimation tasks and achieves
state-of-the-art results in a semi-supervised setting.
