Depth Net Stereo

Standalone install? If this session was not initialized by the TAO skill bank plugin, run the tao-setup skill first (host preflight, credentials, cross-skill discovery).

Stereo depth estimation using FoundationStereo architecture. Predicts disparity maps from stereo image pairs for 3D reconstruction.

Uses pretrained Depth Anything v2 and EdgeNeXt encoders. Set model.stereo_backbone.depth_anything_v2_pretrained_path and model.stereo_backbone.edgenext_pretrained_path.

The mono and stereo skills both invoke the unified TAO depth_net CLI inside the container; the mono/stereo family is selected via model.model_type (e.g., FoundationStereo).

PyT actions packaged by this model skill: train, evaluate, inference, export, and quantize. The PyT depth_net entrypoint does not accept a gen_trt_engine action in the current TAO image; build TensorRT engines only through the deploy workflow.

For TAO Deploy TensorRT actions (gen_trt_engine, TensorRT evaluate, and TensorRT inference), read references/tao-deploy-foundation-stereo.md first. The deploy spec template lives in this skill's references/spec_template_deploy.yaml.

Train Action Policy

This model is AutoML-enabled at the model layer. Before handling any train-stage request, read references/skill_info.yaml and resolve the run override from either an explicit automl_policy value or the user's workflow request. Use automl_policy: on by default and only expose on / off in new launch prompts. Treat phrases like "turn off AutoML", "disable AutoML", "no HPO", or "plain training" as automl_policy: off for this run only. When automl_policy: on, automl_enabled: true, and both schemas/train.schema.json and references/spec_template_train.yaml are packaged, route the train action through tao-skill-bank:tao-run-automl by default with this model's skill_dir. Preserve workflow/application overrides for datasets, specs, output directories, GPU/platform settings, parent checkpoints, and automl_policy. Use direct model training only when automl_policy: off or the packaged train schema/template is missing; in the missing-schema case, report that AutoML is enabled but not runnable for this model until schemas are generated.

Non-train actions such as evaluate, inference, export, and deploy flows stay in this model skill. The per-run automl_policy override does not change model metadata.
