MatchNet论文复现过程记录

原文为《Matchnet: Unifying feature and metric learning for patch-based matching》¹：本文复现基于PyTorch深度学习框架，版本(1.7.1+cu110)。

I.Network architecture

根据论文中描述，MatchNet包括：

A. Feature network

该特征提取网络类似AlexNet²，具体结构如下：
其中，PS: patch size for convolution and pooling layers; S: stride. Layer types: C: convolution, MP: max-pooling, FC: fully-connected.

B. Metric network

包括三个全连接层，FC3后接Softmax作为输出。

C. MatchNet in training

基于patch的匹配任务通常假设patch在计算相似度之前，先经过相同的特征编码。因此，论文中采用Two-tower structure with tied parameters结构，即，仅采用一个特征提取网络，在训练过程中，可以理解为同时使用了两个参数共享的特征提取网络去连接度量网络，更新任何一个特征提取网络，将会使得两个网络的参数都发生变化。（这里直接讲比较难理解，具体可以看代码实现。）

具体代码实现如下：

import torch
import torch.nn as nn

class FeatureNet(nn.Module):
    """特征提取网络
    """
    def __init__(self):
        super(FeatureNet, self).__init__()
