Recurrent Attention Models for Depth-Based Person Identification
We present an attention-based model that reasons on human body shape and
motion dynamics to identify individuals in the absence of RGB information,
hence in the dark. Our approach leverages unique 4D spatio-temporal signatures
to address the identification problem across days. Formulated as a
reinforcement learning task, our model is based on a combination of
convolutional and recurrent neural networks with the goal of identifying small,
discriminative regions indicative of human identity. We demonstrate that our
model produces state-of-the-art results on several published datasets given
only depth images. We further study the robustness of our model towards
viewpoint, appearance, and volumetric changes. Finally, we share insights
gleaned from interpretable 2D, 3D, and 4D visualizations of our model's
spatio-temporal attention.Comment: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 201
Real-time Multiple People Tracking with Deeply Learned Candidate Selection and Person Re-Identification
Online multi-object tracking is a fundamental problem in time-critical video
analysis applications. A major challenge in the popular tracking-by-detection
framework is how to associate unreliable detection results with existing
tracks. In this paper, we propose to handle unreliable detection by collecting
candidates from outputs of both detection and tracking. The intuition behind
generating redundant candidates is that detection and tracks can complement
each other in different scenarios. Detection results of high confidence prevent
tracking drifts in the long term, and predictions of tracks can handle noisy
detection caused by occlusion. In order to apply optimal selection from a
considerable amount of candidates in real-time, we present a novel scoring
function based on a fully convolutional neural network, that shares most
computations on the entire image. Moreover, we adopt a deeply learned
appearance representation, which is trained on large-scale person
re-identification datasets, to improve the identification ability of our
tracker. Extensive experiments show that our tracker achieves real-time and
state-of-the-art performance on a widely used people tracking benchmark.Comment: ICME 201
Vehicle-Rear: A New Dataset to Explore Feature Fusion for Vehicle Identification Using Convolutional Neural Networks
This work addresses the problem of vehicle identification through
non-overlapping cameras. As our main contribution, we introduce a novel dataset
for vehicle identification, called Vehicle-Rear, that contains more than three
hours of high-resolution videos, with accurate information about the make,
model, color and year of nearly 3,000 vehicles, in addition to the position and
identification of their license plates. To explore our dataset we design a
two-stream CNN that simultaneously uses two of the most distinctive and
persistent features available: the vehicle's appearance and its license plate.
This is an attempt to tackle a major problem: false alarms caused by vehicles
with similar designs or by very close license plate identifiers. In the first
network stream, shape similarities are identified by a Siamese CNN that uses a
pair of low-resolution vehicle patches recorded by two different cameras. In
the second stream, we use a CNN for OCR to extract textual information,
confidence scores, and string similarities from a pair of high-resolution
license plate patches. Then, features from both streams are merged by a
sequence of fully connected layers for decision. In our experiments, we
compared the two-stream network against several well-known CNN architectures
using single or multiple vehicle features. The architectures, trained models,
and dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/icarofua/vehicle-rear
