Self-supervised monocular depth estimation is a salient task for 3D scene understanding.

… methods have been proposed to predict accurate pixel-wise depth without using labeled data …

Nevertheless, these … focus on … ideal conditions without natural or digital corruptions … absence of occlusions is assumed even for object-specific depth estimation.

… propose MIMDepth, a method that adapts masked image modeling (MIM) for self-supervised monocular depth estimation.

While MIM has been used to learn generalizable features during pre-training … show how it could be adapted for direct training of monocular depth estimation.

… experiments show that MIMDepth is more robust to noise, blur, weather conditions, digital artifacts, occlusions, as well as untargeted and targeted adversarial attacks.
