    We study the influence of image interpolation algorithms on local feature detectors operating on a scale pyramid, focusing on the Difference-of-Gaussian, as used in SIFT. We show that commonly used implementations, such as in OpenCV and Kornia, are neither rotational nor scale equivariant. We present a simple solution and demonstrate its positive influence on the downstream image matching tasks. The implementation of the method has been accepted in standard libraries OpenCV and Kornia.
