Model Details: DPT-Hybrid (also known as MiDaS 3.0)
Dense Prediction Transformer (DPT) model trained on 1.4 million images for monocular depth estimation.
It was introduced in the paper Vision Transformers for Dense Prediction by Ranftl et al. (2021) and first released in this repository.
DPT uses the Vision Transformer (ViT) as backbone and adds a neck + head on top for monocular depth estimation.
This repository hosts the "hybrid" version of the model as stated in the paper. DPT-Hybrid diverges from DPT by using ViT-hybrid as a backbone and taking some activations from the backbone.
The model card has been written in combination by the Hugging Face team and Intel.
Intended Use |
Description |
Primary intended uses |
You can use the raw model for zero-shot monocular depth estimation. See the model hub to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you. |
Primary intended users |
Anyone doing monocular depth estimation |
Out-of-scope uses |
This model in most cases will need to be fine-tuned for your particular task. The model should not be used to intentionally create hostile or alienating environments for people. |
How to use
Here is how to use this model for zero-shot depth estimation on an image:
from PIL import Image
import numpy as np
import requests
import torch
from transformers import DPTImageProcessor, DPTForDepthEstimation
image_processor = DPTImageProcessor.from_pretrained("Intel/dpt-hybrid-midas")
model = DPTForDepthEstimation.from_pretrained("Intel/dpt-hybrid-midas", low_cpu_mem_usage=True)
url = "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)
inputs = image_processor(images=image, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
outputs = model(**inputs)
predicted_depth = outputs.predicted_depth
prediction = torch.nn.functional.interpolate(
predicted_depth.unsqueeze(1),
size=image.size[::-1],
mode="bicubic",
align_corners=False,
)
output = prediction.squeeze().cpu().numpy()
formatted = (output * 255 / np.max(output)).astype("uint8")
depth = Image.fromarray(formatted)
depth.show()

Training and Evaluation Data |
Description |
Datasets |
The dataset is called MIX 6, and contains around 1.4M images. The model was initialized with ImageNet-pretrained weights. |
Motivation |
To build a robust monocular depth prediction network |
Preprocessing |
"We resize the image such that the longer side is 384 pixels and train on random square crops of size 384. ... We perform random horizontal flips for data augmentation." See Ranftl et al. (2021) for more details. |

Table 1. Comparison to the state of the art on monocular depth estimation. We evaluate zero-shot cross-dataset transfer according to the
protocol defined in [30]. Relative performance is computed with respect to the original MiDaS model [30]. Lower is better for all metrics. (Ranftl et al., 2021)
Ethical Considerations |
Description |
Data |
The training data come from multiple image datasets compiled together. |
Human life |

Mitigations |
No additional risk mitigation strategies were considered during model development. |
Risks and harms |
The extent of the risks involved by using the model remain unknown. |
