We propose an efficient method for unsupervised learning of metric depth estimation from a single image in the context of unconstrained videos captured from UAVs. We combine the accuracy of an analytical solution based on odometry with the power of deep learning. First, we show how to correct the noisy odometric measurements by optimizing the alignment between the derotated optical flow and the pr...
