Dynamic Label Graph Matching for Unsupervised Video Re-identification
© 2017 IEEE. Label estimation is an important component in an unsupervised person re-identification (re-ID) system. This paper focuses on cross-camera label estimation, which can be subsequently used in feature learning to learn robust re-ID models. Specifically, we propose to construct a graph for samples in each camera, and then graph matching scheme is introduced for cross-camera labeling association. While labels directly output from existing graph matching methods may be noisy and inaccurate due to significant cross-camera variations, this paper propose a dynamic graph matching (DGM) method. DGM iteratively updates the image graph and the label estimation process by learning a better feature space with intermediate estimated labels. DGM is advantageous in two aspects: 1) the accuracy of estimated labels is improved significantly with the iterations; 2) DGM is robust to noisy initial training data. Extensive experiments conducted on three benchmarks including the large-scale MARS dataset show that DGM yields competitive performance to fully supervised baselines, and outperforms competing unsupervised learning methods.
FAME: Face Association through Model Evolution
We attack the problem of learning face models for public faces from
weakly-labelled images collected from web through querying a name. The data is
very noisy even after face detection, with several irrelevant faces
corresponding to other people. We propose a novel method, Face Association
through Model Evolution (FAME), that is able to prune the data in an iterative
way, for the face models associated to a name to evolve. The idea is based on
capturing discriminativeness and representativeness of each instance and
eliminating the outliers. The final models are used to classify faces on novel
datasets with possibly different characteristics. On benchmark datasets, our
results are comparable to or better than state-of-the-art studies for the task
of face identification.Comment: Draft version of the stud
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%
