Divide and Fuse: A Re-ranking Approach for Person Re-identification
As re-ranking is a necessary procedure to boost person re-identification
(re-ID) performance on large-scale datasets, the diversity of feature becomes
crucial to person reID for its importance both on designing pedestrian
descriptions and re-ranking based on feature fusion. However, in many
circumstances, only one type of pedestrian feature is available. In this paper,
we propose a "Divide and use" re-ranking framework for person re-ID. It
exploits the diversity from different parts of a high-dimensional feature
vector for fusion-based re-ranking, while no other features are accessible.
Specifically, given an image, the extracted feature is divided into
sub-features. Then the contextual information of each sub-feature is
iteratively encoded into a new feature. Finally, the new features from the same
image are fused into one vector for re-ranking. Experimental results on two
person re-ID benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed
framework. Especially, our method outperforms the state-of-the-art on the
Market-1501 dataset.Comment: Accepted by BMVC201
Temporal Model Adaptation for Person Re-Identification
Person re-identification is an open and challenging problem in computer
vision. Majority of the efforts have been spent either to design the best
feature representation or to learn the optimal matching metric. Most approaches
have neglected the problem of adapting the selected features or the learned
model over time. To address such a problem, we propose a temporal model
adaptation scheme with human in the loop. We first introduce a
similarity-dissimilarity learning method which can be trained in an incremental
fashion by means of a stochastic alternating directions methods of multipliers
optimization procedure. Then, to achieve temporal adaptation with limited human
effort, we exploit a graph-based approach to present the user only the most
informative probe-gallery matches that should be used to update the model.
Results on three datasets have shown that our approach performs on par or even
better than state-of-the-art approaches while reducing the manual pairwise
labeling effort by about 80%
Unsupervised Adaptive Re-identification in Open World Dynamic Camera Networks
Person re-identification is an open and challenging problem in computer
vision. Existing approaches have concentrated on either designing the best
feature representation or learning optimal matching metrics in a static setting
where the number of cameras are fixed in a network. Most approaches have
neglected the dynamic and open world nature of the re-identification problem,
where a new camera may be temporarily inserted into an existing system to get
additional information. To address such a novel and very practical problem, we
propose an unsupervised adaptation scheme for re-identification models in a
dynamic camera network. First, we formulate a domain perceptive
re-identification method based on geodesic flow kernel that can effectively
find the best source camera (already installed) to adapt with a newly
introduced target camera, without requiring a very expensive training phase.
Second, we introduce a transitive inference algorithm for re-identification
that can exploit the information from best source camera to improve the
accuracy across other camera pairs in a network of multiple cameras. Extensive
experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed approach
significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art unsupervised learning based
alternatives whilst being extremely efficient to compute.Comment: CVPR 2017 Spotligh
