Dense Matchers for Dense Tracking
Optical flow is a useful input for various applications, including 3D reconstruction, pose estimation, tracking, and structure-from-motion. Despite its utility, the field of dense long-term tracking, especially over wide baselines, has not been extensively explored. This paper extends the concept of combining multiple optical flows over logarithmically spaced intervals as proposed by MFT. We demonstrate the compatibility of MFT with different optical flow networks, yielding results that surpass their individual performance. Moreover, we present a simple yet effective combination of these networks within the MFT framework. This approach proves to be competitive with more sophisticated, non-causal methods in terms of position prediction accuracy, highlighting the potential of MFT in enhancing long-term tracking applications.

Dense Match Summarization for Faster Two-view Estimation
In this paper, we speed up robust two-view relative pose from dense correspondences. Previous work has shown that dense matchers can significantly improve both accuracy and robustness in the resulting pose. However, the …
Transferring between sparse and dense matching via probabilistic reweighting
Detector-based and detector-free matchers are only applicable within their respective sparsity ranges. To improve adaptability of existing matchers, this paper introduces a novel probabilistic reweighting method. Our met…
