Great tool to keep up to date with papers and for finding related works 📚
💻We've released the code for our #CVPR2025 paper MAtCha!
🍵MAtCha reconstructs sharp, accurate and scalable meshes of both foreground AND background from just a few unposed images (eg 3 to 10 images)...
...While also working with dense-view datasets (hundreds of images)!
#IMC2025 @cvprconference.bsky.social challenge is online!
This year:
- back to collection_mapping: directory with many (similar) scenes->your job to SfM & cluster them
- a bit more of training set
- no transparent objects
