• Abstract: We introduce the first learning-based dense matching algorithm, termed Equirectangular Projection-Oriented Dense Kernelized Feature Matching (EDM), specifically designed for omnidirectional images. Equirectangular projection (ERP) images, with their large fields of view, are particularly suited for dense matching techniques that aim to establish comprehensive correspondences across images. However, ERP images are subject to significant distortions, which we address by leveraging the spherical camera model and geodesic flow refinement in the dense matching method. To further mitigate these distortions, we propose spherical positional embeddings based on 3D Cartesian coordinates of the feature grid. Additionally, our method incorporates bidirectional transformations between spherical and Cartesian coordinate systems during refinement, utilizing a unit sphere to improve matching performance. We demonstrate that our proposed method achieves notable performance enhancements, with improvements of +26.72 and +42.62 in AUC@5{\deg} on the Matterport3D and Stanford2D3D datasets.

  Learnable matchers often underperform when there exists only small regions of co-visibility between image pairs.

We show that the resulting improved correspondences lead to much higher relative posing accuracy for in-the-wild image pairs.

  We present a new learning-based framework S-3D-RCNN that can recover accurate object orientation in SO(3) and simultaneously predict implicit rigid shapes from stereo RGB images. For orientation estimation, in contrast to previous studies that map local appearance to observation angles, we propose a progressive approach by extracting meaningful Intermediate Geometrical Representations (IGRs) This approach features a deep model that transforms perceived intensities from one or two views to object part coordinates to achieve direct egocentric object orientation estimation in the camera coordinate system. To further achieve finer description inside 3D bounding boxes, we investigate the implicit shape estimation problem from stereo images
