Visualizations from our benchmark. We show point-to-point matches generated by different local feature algorithms. Left to right: SIFT, HardNet, LogPolarDesc, R2D2. For details, please refer to our website.

2020 Image Matching ChallengeAcknowledgementsThe benchmark is joint work by Yuhe Jin and Kwang Moo Yi (University of Victoria), Anastasiia Mishchuk and Pascal Fua (EPFL), Dmytro Mishkin and Jiří Matas (Czech Technical University), and Eduard Trulls (Google). The CVPR workshop is co-organized by Vassileios Balntas (Scape Technologies/Facebook), Vincent Lepetit (Ecole des Ponts ParisTech), Dmytro Mishkin and Jiří Matas (Czech Technical University), Johannes Schönberger (Microsoft), Eduard Trulls (Google), and Kwang Moo Yi (University of Victoria).1 Please note that as of April 2, 2020, CVPR is currently on track, despite the COVID-19 pandemic. Challenge information will be updated as the situation develops. Please see the 2020 Image Matching Challenge website for details.^↩
