Matching surfaces is a challenging 3D Computer Vision problem typically addressed by local features. Although a variety of 3D feature detectors and descriptors has been proposed in literature, they have seldom been proposed together and it…

Finding point-wise correspondences between images is a long-standing problem in image analysis. This becomes particularly challenging for sketch images, due to the varying nature of human drawing style, projection distortions and viewport…

Image feature matching is to seek, localize and identify the similarities across the images. The matched local features between different images can indicate the similarities of their content. Resilience of image feature matching to large…

Finding correspondences between images or 3D scans is at the heart of many computer vision and image retrieval applications and is often enabled by matching local keypoint descriptors. Various learning approaches have been applied in the…

We present a large scale benchmark for the evaluation of local feature detectors. Our key innovation is the introduction of a new evaluation protocol which extends and improves the standard detection repeatability measure. The new protocol…

Salient object detection, which aims to identify and locate the most salient pixels or regions in images, has been attracting more and more interest due to its various real-world applications. However, this vision task is quite challenging,…

We present a novel learned keypoint detection method designed to maximize the number of correct matches for the task of non-rigid image correspondence. Our training framework uses true correspondences, obtained by matching annotated image…

This paper introduces a novel feature detector based only on information embedded inside a CNN trained on standard tasks (e.g. classification). While previous works already show that the features of a trained CNN are suitable descriptors,…

A method for learning local affine-covariant regions is presented. We show that maximizing geometric repeatability does not lead to local regions, a.k.a features,that are reliably matched and this necessitates descriptor-based learning. We…

Limited by the locality of convolutional neural networks, most existing local features description methods only learn local descriptors with local information and lack awareness of global and surrounding spatial context. In this work, we…

Deep learning-based methods have become the de facto standard for industrial defect detection. However, their data-hungry nature and inherent "black-box" characteristics often lead to performance bottlenecks and limited trustworthiness in…

Existing methods detect the keypoints in a non-differentiable way, therefore they can not directly optimize the position of keypoints through back-propagation. To address this issue, we present a partially differentiable keypoint detection…

We present a new local descriptor for 3D shapes, directly applicable to a wide range of shape analysis problems such as point correspondences, semantic segmentation, affordance prediction, and shape-to-scan matching. The descriptor is…

For relocalization in large-scale point clouds, we propose the first approach that unifies global place recognition and local 6DoF pose refinement. To this end, we design a Siamese network that jointly learns 3D local feature detection and…

Keypoint detection and local feature description are fundamental tasks in robotic perception, critical for applications such as SLAM, robot localization, feature matching, pose estimation, and 3D mapping. While existing methods…

Keypoint detection and matching is a fundamental task in many computer vision problems, from shape reconstruction, to structure from motion, to AR/VR applications and robotics. It is a well-studied problem with remarkable successes such as…

Point cloud based place recognition is still an open issue due to the difficulty in extracting local features from the raw 3D point cloud and generating the global descriptor, and it's even harder in the large-scale dynamic environments. In…

This paper presents a novel keypoints-based attention mechanism for visual recognition in still images. Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for recognizing images with distinctive classes have shown great success, but their…

Identifying salient points in images is a crucial component for visual odometry, Structure-from-Motion or SLAM algorithms. Recently, several learned keypoint methods have demonstrated compelling performance on challenging benchmarks.…

In recent years, the learned local descriptors have outperformed handcrafted ones by a large margin, due to the powerful deep convolutional neural network architectures such as L2-Net [1] and triplet based metric learning [2]. However,…
