abstract

This paper presents a self-supervised framework for training interest point detectors and descriptors suitable for a large number of multiple-view geometry problems in computer vision. As opposed to patch-based neural networks, our fully-convolutional model operates on full-sized images and jointly computes pixel-level interest point locations and associated descriptors in one forward pass. We introduce Homographic Adaptation, a multi-scale, multi-homography approach for boosting interest point detection repeatability and performing cross-domain adaptation (e.g., synthetic-to-real). Our model, when trained on the MS-COCO generic image dataset using Homographic Adaptation, is able to repeatedly detect a much richer set of interest points than the initial pre-adapted deep model and any other traditional corner detector. The final system gives rise to state-of-the-art homography estimation results on HPatches when compared to LIFT, SIFT and ORB.

Leveraging AV1 motion vectors for Fast and Dense Feature Matching

cs.CV · 2025-10-20 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

AV1 motion vectors filtered by cosine consistency yield dense sub-pixel correspondences that support structure-from-motion on short video clips with lower CPU cost and higher match density than sequential SIFT.

Example-Based Object Detection

cs.CV · 2026-05-06 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

EBOD integrates SAM3 with DINOv3 and LightGlue to leverage previous error examples and suppress recurring false positives and negatives without retraining.
