Rotation steerers for LoFTR #10

Thank you for sharing your great work. Inspired by "Acase for using rotation invariant features in state of the art feature matchers", I am attempting to integrate Steerers with LoFTR by using Steerers to rotate the descriptors before the coarse matching stage of LoFTR. However, I have not been able to generate any matches. May I ask if there are any precautions to consider when combining this work with LoFTR?

That sounds like an interesting idea. Are you optimizing a steerer for a pretrained loftr-model, or optimizing everything from scratch?
