problems about predicting normal and depth independently

[snowflakewang]

Hello, thank you for your brilliant work in Stable Diffusion-based geometry estimation!
I wonder whether your model can predict normal and depth independently. i.e. I can input an image and the model will only output a depth or normal.

Thank you :)

Hi, thanks for your interest! However, one of our contributions is to utilize mutual guidance of depth & normal to improve each other (see ablation study). Thus it must generate the depth & normal maps that share the same spatial layout at the same time. Sorry for it.
