提升特征匹配效率,兼顾精度与速度。

EDM: Efficient Deep Feature Matching

  • 用更深层但维度更低的CNN提取多层级特征。
  • 通过相关性注入模块实现高效多尺度特征融合,提速且提准。
  • 轻量级双向回归头直接预测亚像素匹配点,避免高分辨率计算开销。

近期特征匹配方法虽性能出色,但忽视了效率问题。本文重新审视主流无检测器匹配流程,从各阶段优化精度与效率。提出高效深度特征匹配网络EDM:首先采用更深但维度更少的CNN提取多级特征;提出相关性注入模块,在高层特征上进行变换,并从全局到局部逐步注入特征相关性,实现高效多尺度聚合;在精修阶段,设计轻量级双向轴向回归头,直接从潜在特征预测亚像素级对应点,避免在高分辨率局部特征热图上显式定位关键点带来的巨大计算开销。同时引入有效选择策略提升匹配精度。大量实验表明,EDM在多个基准上达到竞争性匹配精度,同时展现卓越效率,为实际应用提供了宝贵实践参考。代码已公开于https://github.com/chicleee/EDM。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Recent feature matching methods have achieved remarkable performance but lack efficiency consideration. In this paper, we revisit the mainstream detector-free matching pipeline and improve all its stages considering both accuracy and efficiency. We propose an Efficient Deep feature Matching network, EDM. We first adopt a deeper CNN with fewer dimensions to extract multi-level features. Then we present a Correlation Injection Module that conducts feature transformation on high-level deep features, and progressively injects feature correlations from global to local for efficient multi-scale feature aggregation, improving both speed and performance. In the refinement stage, a novel lightweight bidirectional axis-based regression head is designed to directly predict subpixel-level correspondences from latent features, avoiding the significant computational cost of explicitly locating keypoints on high-resolution local feature heatmaps. Moreover, effective selection strategies are introduced to enhance matching accuracy. Extensive experiments show that our EDM achieves competitive matching accuracy on various benchmarks and exhibits excellent efficiency, offering valuable best practices for real-world applications.
