REDI-Match: Rotation-Equivariant Distillation for Efficient and Robust Dense Matching

Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) have significantly advanced dense feature matching, yet severe in-plane rotation remains a critical challenge. Existing solutions face a fundamental dilemma: data-driven methods require inefficient parameter scaling to implicitly learn rotations, whereas strictly equivariant networks lack the semantic capacity of modern VFMs.

A Shared Encoder Is Not a Shared Task: Conditional Comparison for Deep Expert Pools

The paper demonstrates that sharing a deep encoder alone does not eliminate the confounding effects in task-comparison scores. By introducing a conditional two‑discriminator discrepancy within the embedding space, the authors achieve robust detection of task changes, maintaining stability under input rotations and accurately tracking label‑permutation drift. This approach, integrated into a mixture‑of‑heads framework, outperforms traditional novelty triggers and generalizes across multiple backbones and datasets, including ImageNet‑21k ViT‑B/16, DINOv2, and CIFAR‑100.
