Reconstruction Pipeline

Hello, thanks for your sharing!
How could I apply GeoDesc to SIFT-based reconstruction pipeline like you did in your paper Fig.5. I'm new in program, any advice would be appreciated.
To get a quick start, I would suggest you following the instructions of ETH local feature benchmark. You may use the provided script to extract local feature from images, dump them into binary files (<DESC_1><DESC_2><...><DESC_N>) then run their MATLAB scripts to complete the reconstruction by COLMAP. This is what I did for experiments in Fig.3. I may also provide a script to run the above procedures in the future.
Experiments in Fig.5 were conducted with our own 3D reconstruction pipeline in order to get finer mesh reconstructions. The pipeline is a more efficient with TensorFlow C++ APIs, GPU-based matching and GPU-based keypoint detector.
@lzx551402 Thanks for your patient and quick reply. I'll start from your suggestions.
@lzx551402 are you planning on opensourcing your 3D reconstruction pipeline?
@giorat I'm afraid not as it is in commercial use (https://www.altizure.com/). But you are welcome to try it out by simply uploading your images to the cloud (free of charge as long as they are not too large).
