We present RGB-D-Fusion, a multi-modal conditional denoising diffusion probabilistic model to generate high resolution depth maps from low-resolution monocular RGB images of humanoid subjects. RGB-D-Fusion first generates a low-resolution depth map using an image conditioned denoising diffusion probabilistic model and then upsamples the depth map using a second denoising diffusion probabilistic model conditioned on a low-resolution RGB-D image. We further introduce a novel augmentation technique, depth noise augmentation, to increase the robustness of our super-resolution model.
