Please add the GIM image matching method

The GIM image matching method retrains DKM, LoFTR and SuperGlue image matching methods with higher accuracy. here is the ICLR2024 spotlight paper:

@sarlinpe @Phil26AT I would really like this too for a current project I'm working on.
Can we expect this soon? It would be a huge improvement!

You’re welcome contribute this with a PR.

I think a PR should be straightforward, since GIM only uses different weights trained on a lot more data. The model architectures / inference code is the same as DKM / SG.

@sarlinpe Thank you for releasing hloc. It is really an easy-to-use and powerful project. @ssheorey @protoism Thank you for your attention and interest of gim. I will submit a PR later to integrate the model trained on gim into hloc. Please be patient and wait a little longer.

Great, thank you!

My pleasure! I'm appreciate you maintaining such a useful project.

Any release date planned regarding such PR ? 🫣
