Structured learning of metric ensembles with application to person re-identification
Matching individuals across non-overlapping camera networks, known as person
re-identification, is a fundamentally challenging problem due to the large
visual appearance changes caused by variations of viewpoints, lighting, and
occlusion. Approaches in literature can be categoried into two streams: The
first stream is to develop reliable features against realistic conditions by
combining several visual features in a pre-defined way; the second stream is to
learn a metric from training data to ensure strong inter-class differences and
intra-class similarities. However, seeking an optimal combination of visual
features which is generic yet adaptive to different benchmarks is a unsoved
problem, and metric learning models easily get over-fitted due to the scarcity
of training data in person re-identification. In this paper, we propose two
effective structured learning based approaches which explore the adaptive
effects of visual features in recognizing persons in different benchmark data
sets. Our framework is built on the basis of multiple low-level visual features
with an optimal ensemble of their metrics. We formulate two optimization
algorithms, CMCtriplet and CMCstruct, which directly optimize evaluation
measures commonly used in person re-identification, also known as the
Cumulative Matching Characteristic (CMC) curve.Comment: 16 pages. Extended version of "Learning to Rank in Person

Beyond Intra-modality: A Survey of Heterogeneous Person Re-identification
An efficient and effective person re-identification (ReID) system relieves
the users from painful and boring video watching and accelerates the process of
video analysis. Recently, with the explosive demands of practical applications,
a lot of research efforts have been dedicated to heterogeneous person
re-identification (Hetero-ReID). In this paper, we provide a comprehensive
review of state-of-the-art Hetero-ReID methods that address the challenge of
inter-modality discrepancies. According to the application scenario, we
classify the methods into four categories -- low-resolution, infrared, sketch,
and text. We begin with an introduction of ReID, and make a comparison between
Homogeneous ReID (Homo-ReID) and Hetero-ReID tasks. Then, we describe and
compare existing datasets for performing evaluations, and survey the models
that have been widely employed in Hetero-ReID. We also summarize and compare
the representative approaches from two perspectives, i.e., the application
scenario and the learning pipeline. We conclude by a discussion of some future
research directions. Follow-up updates are avaible at:
