H-Net: Neural Network for Cross-domain Image Patch Matching
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Describing the same scene with different imaging style or rendering image from its 3D model gives us different domain images. Different domain images tend to have a gap and different local appearances, which raise the main challenge on the cross-domain image patch matching. In this paper, we propose to incorporate AutoEncoder into the Siamese network, named as H-Net, of which the structural shape resembles the letter H. The H-Net achieves state-of-the-art performance on the cross-domain image patch matching. Furthermore, we improved H-Net to H-Net++. The H-Net++ extracts invariant feature descriptors in cross-domain image patches and achieves state-of-the-art performance by feature retrieval in Euclidean space. As there is no benchmark dataset including cross-domain images, we made a cross-domain image dataset which consists of camera images, rendering images from UAV 3D model, and images generated by CycleGAN algorithm. Experiments show that the proposed H-Net and H-Net++ outperform the existing algorithms. Our code and cross-domain image dataset are available at https://github.com/Xylon-Sean/H-Net.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
