Abstract

Supervised and unsupervised homography estimation methods depend on image pairs tailored to specific modalities to achieve high accuracy. However, their performance deteriorates substantially when applied to unseen modalities. To address this issue, we propose a training data synthesis method that generates unaligned image pairs with ground-truth offsets from a single input image. Our approach renders the image pairs with diverse textures and colors while preserving their structural information. These synthetic data empower the trained model to achieve greater robustness and improved generalization across various domains. Additionally, we design a network to fully leverage cross-scale information and decouple color information from feature representations, thus improving estimation accuracy. Extensive experiments show that our training data synthesis method improves generalization performance. The results also confirm the effectiveness of the proposed network.

SA-Homo: Scale Adaptive Homography Estimation for Scale Variation Scenarios

Homography estimation, as one of the fundamental problems in computer vision, remains challenged by scale variation scenarios where image pairs potentially exhibit significant scale discrepancies. Existing deep learning frameworks frequently suffer from a significant performance degradation in such cases, as they rely on limited displacement assumptions and local feature consistency that might not hold under large scale gaps. In this paper, we propose SA-Homo, a novel scale-adaptive homography estimation framework designed to achieve robust alignment across a wide range of scale discrepancy ratios. We adopt a hierarchical scale alignment strategy that transitions from the global perspective with a heavy module to a local perspective with a light module. Specifically, we introduce the Scale-aware Discrepancy Bridging Module (SDBM) for initial alignment, which utilizes a Multi-scale Linear Attention Cascade (MLAC) to capture long-range dependencies and mitigate feature inconsistencies, along with a global Cross-scale Similarity Matrix Block (CSMB) for scale robust correlation representation. Once the initial scale gap is bridged, a lightweight Iterative Homography Estimation Refinement Module (IHERM) progressively polishes the result using local correlations. To facilitate this research, we contribute the HMSA dataset, a high-resolution, multi-modal satellite benchmark specifically tailored for scale-variant challenges. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SA-Homo maintains high precision even under 8×\times scale discrepancies, outperforming state-of-the-art methods in both conventional scale-similar scenarios and challenging scale variation scenarios.

AnyMatch: Supercharging Universal Multi-Modal Image Matching with Large-Scale Single-View Images

Multi-modal image matching is essential for visual localization and multi-sensor fusion, but it is hindered by the scarcity of large-scale training data with precise geometric annotations. Existing real-world datasets suffer from prohibitive costs, limited scene diversity, and errors in SfM-MVS pipelines, while synthetic methods struggle to maintain 3D geometric consistency or achieve photorealistic appearance. To address this, we propose AnyMatch, a novel framework that leverages abundant, easily accessible single-view images at minimal cost to generate rich multi-modal training data. AnyMatch integrates monocular depth estimation, 3D reprojection, diffusion-based inpainting, and crossmodal image translation to synthesize multi-view, multi-modal image pairs with 3D geometric fidelity. Crucially, our method provides annotations that strictly adhere to 3D geometric consistency through explicit 3D reprojection, avoiding SfM-MVS error accumulation. Furthermore, AnyMatch offers strong scalability, enabling controllable scene diversity and annotation difficulty via adjustable input and camera parameters. We construct Any-syn, a large-scale synthetic multi-modal dataset using AnyMatch. Experimental results show that matching networks (e.g., LoFTR, EDM, RoMa) fine-tuned on Any-syn achieve substantial performance gains on multi-modal benchmarks, exhibiting superior generalization and robustness compared to models trained on existing data.

AnyMo: Scaling Any-Modality Conditional Motion Generation with Masked Modeling

Conditional human motion generation remains a fundamental challenge in computer vision and robotics. Despite significant progress, current methods are often constrained by fixed modality configurations and task-specific architectures, leaving cross-modal interactions and the scaling laws of multimodal-conditioned synthesis largely underexplored. A key bottleneck is the scarcity of large-scale modality-aligned motion data, limiting generalization across diverse control signals. In this work, we introduce OmniHuMo, a large-scale, high-quality dataset comprising over 5,000 hours of motion and 3.2 million sequences with precisely aligned multimodal annotations (e.g., text, speech, music, and trajectory). Leveraging OmniHuMo, we propose AnyMo, a unified multimodal framework combining a Residual FSQ-based motion tokenizer with a scalable masked modeling transformer, enabling high-quality motion synthesis under arbitrary modality combinations. Extensive experiments show that AnyMo achieves high-fidelity synthesis while offering flexible control over both spatial and stylistic attributes.
