Self-supervised depth estimation from monocular image sequences provides depth information without costly sensors like LiDAR, offering significant value for autonomous driving. Although self-supervised algorithms can reduce the dependence on labeled data, the performance is still affected by scene occlusions, lighting differences, and sparse textures. Existing methods do not consider the enhancement and interaction fusion of features. In this paper, we propose a novel parallel multi-scale semantic-depth interactive fusion network. First, we adopt a multi-stage feature attention network for feature extraction, and a parallel semantic-depth interactive fusion module is introduced to refine edges. Furthermore, we also employ a metric loss based on semantic edges to take full advantage of semantic geometric information. Our network is trained and evaluated on KITTI datasets. The experimental results show that the methods achieve satisfactory performance compared to other existing methods.
