[2023.10. Solvers in Kornia]
Our implemented 5PC solver for essential matrix estimation is integrated in [Kornia](https://github.com/kornia/kornia)! Install it from source by$ pip install git+https://github.com/kornia/kornia
Here are the required packages,
python = 3.7.11
pytorch = 1.12.1
opencv = 3.4.2
tqdm
kornia
kornia_moons
tensorboardX = 2.2
scikit-learn
einops
yacs
or try with conda create --name <env> --file requirements.txt
The SOTA results are tested from our method intergrated in MAGSAC++, install it in Python as follows.
$ git clone https://github.com/weitong8591/magsac.git --recursive
$ cd magsac
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ cd ..
$ python setup.py install
Note that the proposed Gumbel Softmax Sampler is actiavted by sampler=3.
Download the pretrained models we provide here, and test them as follows.
[Two-view epipolar geometry estimation]
Download the RootSIFT features of PhotoTourism from here, and run
$ python test_magsac.py -nf 2000 -m pretrained_models/saved_model_5PC_l_epi/model.net -bs 32 -fmat 0 -sam 1 -bm 1 -t 2 -pth <>
add -fmat 1 to activate fundamental matrix estimation; use -ds <scene_name> instead of -bm 1 to test on a specific scene.
AUC scores thresholded at [5, 10, 20] are compared for E estimation, F1 scores and median epipolar errors are the evluation metrics for F estimation.
Note: SuperPoint+SuperGlue features on ScanNet are coming soon.
[3D point cloud registration]
Download the 3DMatch and 3DLoMatch data from here, and run
$ python test_magsac_point.py -m diff_ransac_models/point_model.net -d cpu -us 0 -max 50000 -pth <>
The evaluation metrics refer to registration and utils in GeoTransformer.
[Learned robust feature matching]
Download the images, camera intrinsics and extrinsics of PhotoTourism from here, and test with three protocols (-ransac): 0-OpenCV-RANSAC; 0-OpenCV-MAGSAC; 2-MAGSAC++ with PROSAC.
$ python test_ransac_loftr.py -nf 2000 -tr 1 -bs 1 -lr 0.000001 -t 3. -sam 3 -fmat 1 -sid loftr -m2 diff_ransac_models/loftr_model.pth -pth <>
[Two-view epipolar geometry estimation]
Train a importance score prediction model (eg, CLNet backbone, predicting importance score for each input tentative correspondences) with
$ python train.py -nf 2000 -m pretrained_models/weights_init_net_3_sampler_0_epoch_1000_E_rs_r0.80_t0.00_w1_1.00_.net -bs 32 -fmat 0 -sam 2 -tr 1 -w2 1 -t 0.75 -pth <>
Notes: the initilized weights are applied; 5PC is used for essential matrix estimation (-sam 2 -fmat 0); 7PC (-sam 2 -fmat 1) and 8PC (-sam 3 -fmat 1) can be used for F estimation.
In terms of training loss, -w2 (mean epipolar errors) works the best in terms of AUC scores, however, using the linear combination of the classification loss (-w1 1) with -w2 as objective leads to more normal learning performance (always downward trend, but lower AUC scores in the inference). The epipolar loss (w2) is not stable in different training trials.
The train/valid data is updated to split off-line, the training image pair list and train-val data of St. Peters Square are avaiable here.
[3D point cloud registration]
Train a importance score prediction model (eg, CLNet backbone, predicting importance score for each input tentative correspondences) with
3DMatch train/val dataset is used,
$ python train_point.py -nf 2000 -sam 2 -tr 1 -t 0.75 -pth <>
[Learning Robust Feature Matching]
End-to-end training of feature matcher(eg, LoFTR) with
$ python train_ransac_loftr.py -nf 2000 -tr 1 -bs 1 -lr 1e-6 -t 0.75 -sam 3 -fmat 1 -w2 1 -sid loftr -e 50 -p 0 -topk 1 -m2 diff_ransac_models/outdoor_ds.ckpt -pth RANSAC-Tutorial-Data/train/
test E estimation on one scene without local optimiztion, no installation of MAGSAC++ needed.
$ python test.py -nf 2000 -m pretrained_models/saved_model_5PC_l_epi/model.net -bs 32 -fmat 1 -sam 3 -ds sacre_coeur -t 2 -pth <data_path>

[Referred code]
The minimal solvers, model scoring functions, local optimization, etc. are re-implemented in PyTorch referring to MAGSAC. Also, thanks to the public repo of CLNet, NG-RANSAC, and the libraries of PyTorch, Kornia.
