If you liked LightGlue, you will like FlexGlue even more! It's better on all fronts (also beats RoMa & LoMa), sparse and dense matching, also uniquely suppresses matches between similar, but non-matching images. Best of all, it's already available in COLMAP.
To match or not to match?

FlexGlue 🐙, our new image-matching model, can match every pixel AND reject doppelganger pairs, tackling a common failure case in SfM.

➡️State-of-the-art SfM and matching, blazing fast
➡️Code: github.com/cvg/FlexGlue
➡️Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2610.32976

Double-blindness promotes diversity of ideas, helps renew the field, something which was sorely missing at SIGGRAPH when they were single-blind.

Hard data on the benefits of double-blind reviewing. "When manuscript authors’ identities and affiliations are blocked from peer reviewers, unconscious bias is less likely to influence peer review than when that information is available". It works. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Fully agreed. Countries should not host top conferences if they are not committed to do their best to let authors represent their work in-person.

Canada has positioned itself as a leader in the global AI race, yet it seems ambivalent about hosting the most influential AI conference on the planet (according to Google Scholar). Post pandemic isolation, this is the first chance for many young scientists to present their work.
