In this work we propose the method for a rather unexplored problem of computer vision - discriminatively trained dense surface normal estimation from a single image. Our method combines contextual and segment-based cues and builds a regressor in a boosting framework by transforming the problem into the regression of coefficients of a local coding. We apply our method to two challenging data sets containing images of man-made environments, the indoor NYU2 data set and the outdoor KITTI data set. Our surface normal predictor achieves results better than initially expected, significantly outperforming state-of-the-art.
