This is an differentiable pytorch implementation of SIFT patch descriptor.

Overview

This is an differentiable pytorch implementation of SIFT patch descriptor. It is very slow for describing one patch, but quite fast for batch. It can be used for descriptop-based learning shape of affine feature.

UPD 08/2019 : pytorch-sift is added to kornia and available by kornia.features.SIFTDescriptor

There are different implementations of the SIFT on the web. I tried to match Michal Perdoch implementation, which gives high quality features for image retrieval CVPR2009. However, on planar datasets, it is inferior to vlfeat implementation. The main difference is gaussian weighting window parameters, so I have made a vlfeat-like version too. MP version weights patch center much more (see image below, left) and additionally crops everything outside the circular region. Right is vlfeat version

descriptor_mp_mode = SIFTNet(patch_size = 65,
                        sigma_type= 'hesamp',
                        masktype='CircularGauss')

descriptor_vlfeat_mode = SIFTNet(patch_size = 65,
                        sigma_type= 'vlfeat',
                        masktype='Gauss')
