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:

Deep Sketch-Photo Face Recognition Assisted by Facial Attributes
In this paper, we present a deep coupled framework to address the problem of
matching sketch image against a gallery of mugshots. Face sketches have the
essential in- formation about the spatial topology and geometric details of
faces while missing some important facial attributes such as ethnicity, hair,
eye, and skin color. We propose a cou- pled deep neural network architecture
which utilizes facial attributes in order to improve the sketch-photo
recognition performance. The proposed Attribute-Assisted Deep Con- volutional
Neural Network (AADCNN) method exploits the facial attributes and leverages the
loss functions from the facial attributes identification and face verification
tasks in order to learn rich discriminative features in a common em- bedding
subspace. The facial attribute identification task increases the inter-personal
variations by pushing apart the embedded features extracted from individuals
with differ- ent facial attributes, while the verification task reduces the
intra-personal variations by pulling together all the fea- tures that are
related to one person. The learned discrim- inative features can be well
generalized to new identities not seen in the training data. The proposed
architecture is able to make full use of the sketch and complementary fa- cial
attribute information to train a deep model compared to the conventional
sketch-photo recognition methods. Exten- sive experiments are performed on
composite (E-PRIP) and semi-forensic (IIIT-D semi-forensic) datasets. The
results show the superiority of our method compared to the state- of-the-art
models in sketch-photo recognition algorithm
Coupled Deep Learning for Heterogeneous Face Recognition
Heterogeneous face matching is a challenge issue in face recognition due to
large domain difference as well as insufficient pairwise images in different
modalities during training. This paper proposes a coupled deep learning (CDL)
approach for the heterogeneous face matching. CDL seeks a shared feature space
in which the heterogeneous face matching problem can be approximately treated
as a homogeneous face matching problem. The objective function of CDL mainly
includes two parts. The first part contains a trace norm and a block-diagonal
prior as relevance constraints, which not only make unpaired images from
multiple modalities be clustered and correlated, but also regularize the
parameters to alleviate overfitting. An approximate variational formulation is
introduced to deal with the difficulties of optimizing low-rank constraint
directly. The second part contains a cross modal ranking among triplet domain
specific images to maximize the margin for different identities and increase
data for a small amount of training samples. Besides, an alternating
minimization method is employed to iteratively update the parameters of CDL.
Experimental results show that CDL achieves better performance on the
challenging CASIA NIR-VIS 2.0 face recognition database, the IIIT-D Sketch
database, the CUHK Face Sketch (CUFS), and the CUHK Face Sketch FERET (CUFSF),
which significantly outperforms state-of-the-art heterogeneous face recognition
methods.Comment: AAAI 201
