UniStitch: Unifying Semantic and Geometric Features for Image Stitching
Traditional image stitching methods estimate warps from hand-crafted geometric features, whereas recent learning-based solutions leverage semantic features from neural networks instead. These two lines of research have largely diverged along separate evolution, with virtually no meaningful convergence to date. In this paper, we take a pioneering step to bridge this gap by unifying semantic and geometric features with UniStitch, a unified image stitching framework from multimodal features. To align discrete geometric features (i.e., keypoint) with continuous semantic feature maps, we present a Neural Point Transformer (NPT) module, which transforms unordered, sparse 1D geometric keypoints ...
