PyTorch implementation of SGMNet for ICCV'21 paper "Learning to Match Features with Seeded Graph Matching Network", by Hongkai Chen, Zixin Luo, Jiahui Zhang, Lei Zhou, Xuyang Bai, Zeyu Hu, Chiew-Lan Tai, Long Quan.
This work focuses on keypoint-based image matching problem. We mitigate the qudratic complexity issue for typical GNN-based matching by leveraging a restrited set of pre-matched seeds.
This repo contains training, evaluation and basic demo sripts used in our paper. As baseline, it also includes our implementation for SuperGlue. If you find this project useful, please cite:

Part of the code is borrowed or ported from
SuperPoint, for SuperPoint implementation,
SuperGlue, for SuperGlue implementation and exact auc computation,
OANet, for training scheme,
PointCN, for implementaion of PointCN block and geometric transformations,
FM-Bench, for evaluation of fundamental matrix estimation.
Please also cite these works if you find the corresponding code useful.
We use PyTorch 1.6, later version should also be compatible. Please refer to requirements.txt for other dependencies.
If you are using conda, you may configure the environment as:
conda create --name sgmnet python=3.7 -y && \
pip install -r requirements.txt && \
conda activate sgmnet
Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/vdvchen/SGMNet.git && \
download model weights from here
extract weights by
tar -xvf weights.tar.gz
A quick demo for image matching can be called by:
cd demo && python demo.py --config_path configs/sgm_config.yaml
The resutls will be saved as match.png in demo folder. You may configure the matcher in corresponding yaml file.
We demonstrate evaluation process with RootSIFT and SGMNet. Evaluation with other features/matchers can be conducted by configuring the corresponding yaml files.

We provide a script to test run time and memory consumption, for a quick start, run
cd evaluation
python eval_cost.py --matcher_name SGM --config_path configs/cost/sgm_cost.yaml --num_kpt=4000
You may configure the matcher in corresponding yaml files.
For visualization of matching results on different dataset, add --vis_folder argument on evaluation command, e.g.
cd evaluation
python evaluate.py --config_path configs/eval/***.yaml --vis_folder visualization
We train both SGMNet and SuperGlue on GL3D dataset. The training data is pre-generated in an offline manner, which yields about 400k pairs in total.
To generate training/validation dataset
Download GL3D rawdata
Configure datadump/configs/gl3d.yaml. Some important entries are
rawdata_dir: path for GL3D raw data
feature_dump_dir: path for extracted features
dataset_dump_dir: path for generated dataset
pairs_per_seq: number of pairs sampled for each sequence
angle_th: angle threshold for sampled pairs
overlap_th: common track threshold for sampled pairs
extractor: configuration for keypoint extractor
dump dataset by
cd datadump
python dump.py --config_path configs/gl3d.yaml
Two parts of data will be generated. (1) Extracted features and keypoints will be placed under feature_dump_dir (2) Pairwise dataset will be placed under dataset_dump_dir.
After data generation, configure train/train_sgm.sh for necessary entries, including
rawdata_path: path for GL3D raw data
desc_path: path for extracted features
dataset_path: path for generated dataset
desc_suffix: suffix for keypoint files, _root_1000.hdf5 for 1k RootSIFT by default.

our training scripts support multi-gpu training, which can be enabled by configure train/train_sgm.sh for these entries
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES: id of gpus to be used
nproc_per_node: number of gpus to be used
run SuperGlue training scripts by
bash train_sg.sh
