Higher Chern-Simons based on (2-)crossed modules
We present higher Chern-Simons theories based on (2-)crossed modules. We
start from the generalized differential forms in Generalized Differential
Calculus and define the corresponding generalized connections which consist of
higher connections. Then we establish the generalized Chern-Simons forms to get
the higher Chern-Simons actions. Finally, we develop the higher second Chern
forms and Chern-Weil theorems
Determinant representations for scalar products of the XXZ Gaudin model with general boundary terms
We obtain the determinant representations of the scalar products for the XXZ
Gaudin model with generic non-diagonal boundary terms.Comment: Latex file, 17 page
Learning Correspondence Structures for Person Re-identification
This paper addresses the problem of handling spatial misalignments due to
camera-view changes or human-pose variations in person re-identification. We
first introduce a boosting-based approach to learn a correspondence structure
which indicates the patch-wise matching probabilities between images from a
target camera pair. The learned correspondence structure can not only capture
the spatial correspondence pattern between cameras but also handle the
viewpoint or human-pose variation in individual images. We further introduce a
global constraint-based matching process. It integrates a global matching
constraint over the learned correspondence structure to exclude cross-view
misalignments during the image patch matching process, hence achieving a more
reliable matching score between images. Finally, we also extend our approach by
introducing a multi-structure scheme, which learns a set of local
correspondence structures to capture the spatial correspondence sub-patterns
between a camera pair, so as to handle the spatial misalignments between
individual images in a more precise way. Experimental results on various
datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.Comment: IEEE Trans. Image Processing, vol. 26, no. 5, pp. 2438-2453, 2017.
