cvg/LightGlue
A lightweight deep neural network that matches sparse local features across image pairs using adaptive pruning in network width and depth.

LightGlue is a computer vision model published at ICCV 2023 that performs local feature matching between image pairs. It takes keypoints and descriptors as input and returns corresponding point indices. The architecture employs adaptive pruning techniques to reduce computational complexity for easier image pairs while maintaining accuracy. Pretrained weights are available for use with SuperPoint, DISK, ALIKED, and SIFT local feature extractors.
