LateMatch: Breaking the Interaction Bottleneck via Cacheable Matching for Efficient Visual Localization
Visual localization is critical for embodied agents, but deploying state-of-the-art deep feature matchers on edge devices is fundamentally limited by their massive computational cost. Standard deep matchers tightly interleave intra-image context building and inter-image matching at every layer, creating a severe interaction bottleneck. Localizing a single query against K database images forces the system to execute the full network K independent times with no capacity for caching. To break this bottleneck, we advocate for a paradigm shift toward cacheable image matching. We realize this paradigm with LateMatch, a versatile approach that restructures existing matchers by deferring inter-im...
