With the rise of deep learning methods, person Re-Identification (ReID) performance has been improved tremendously in many public datasets. However, most public ReID datasets are collected in a short time window in which persons appearance rarely changes. In real-world applications such as in a shopping mall, the same persons clothing may change, and different persons may wearing similar clothes. All these cases can result in an inconsistent ReID performance, revealing a critical problem that current ReID models heavily rely on persons apparels. Therefore, it is critical to learn an apparel-invariant person representation under cases like cloth changing or several persons wearing similar clothes. In this work, we tackle this problem from the viewpoint of invariant feature representation learning. The main contributions of this work are as follows. (1) We propose the semi-supervised Apparel-invariant Feature Learning (AIFL) framework to learn an apparel-invariant pedestrian representation using images of the same person wearing different clothes. (2) To obtain images of the same person wearing different clothes, we propose an unsupervised apparel-simulation GAN (AS-GAN) to synthesize cloth changing images according to the target cloth embedding. Its worth noting that the images used in ReID tasks were cropped from real-world low-quality CCTV videos, making it more challenging to synthesize cloth changing images. We conduct extensive experiments on several datasets comparing with several baselines. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposal can improve the ReID performance of the baseline models.

Visual attention has proven to be effective in improving the performance of person re-identification. Most existing methods apply visual attention heuristically by learning an additional attention map to re-weight the feature maps for person re-ident ification. However, this kind of methods inevitably increase the model complexity and inference time. In this paper, we propose to incorporate the attention learning as additional objectives in a person ReID network without changing the original structure, thus maintain the same inference time and model size. Two kinds of attentions have been considered to make the learned feature maps being aware of the person and related body parts respectively. Globally, a holistic attention branch (HAB) makes the feature maps obtained by backbone focus on persons so as to alleviate the influence of background. Locally, a partial attention branch (PAB) makes the extracted features be decoupled into several groups and be separately responsible for different body parts (i.e., keypoints), thus increasing the robustness to pose variation and partial occlusion. These two kinds of attentions are universal and can be incorporated into existing ReID networks. We have tested its performance on two typical networks (TriNet and Bag of Tricks) and observed significant performance improvement on five widely used datasets.
Person re-identification (reID) plays an important role in computer vision. However, existing methods suffer from performance degradation in occluded scenes. In this work, we propose an occlusion-robust block, Region Feature Completion (RFC), for occ luded reID. Different from most previous works that discard the occluded regions, RFC block can recover the semantics of occluded regions in feature space. Firstly, a Spatial RFC (SRFC) module is developed. SRFC exploits the long-range spatial contexts from non-occluded regions to predict the features of occluded regions. The unit-wise prediction task leads to an encoder/decoder architecture, where the region-encoder models the correlation between non-occluded and occluded region, and the region-decoder utilizes the spatial correlation to recover occluded region features. Secondly, we introduce Temporal RFC (TRFC) module which captures the long-term temporal contexts to refine the prediction of SRFC. RFC block is lightweight, end-to-end trainable and can be easily plugged into existing CNNs to form RFCnet. Extensive experiments are conducted on occluded and commonly holistic reID benchmarks. Our method significantly outperforms existing methods on the occlusion datasets, while remains top even superior performance on holistic datasets.

The performance of person re-identification (Re-ID) has been seriously effected by the large cross-view appearance variations caused by mutual occlusions and background clutters. Hence learning a feature representation that can adaptively emphasize t he foreground persons becomes very critical to solve the person Re-ID problem. In this paper, we propose a simple yet effective foreground attentive neural network (FANN) to learn a discriminative feature representation for person Re-ID, which can adaptively enhance the positive side of foreground and weaken the negative side of background. Specifically, a novel foreground attentive subnetwork is designed to drive the networks attention, in which a decoder network is used to reconstruct the binary mask by using a novel local regression loss function, and an encoder network is regularized by the decoder network to focus its attention on the foreground persons. The resulting feature maps of encoder network are further fed into the body part subnetwork and feature fusion subnetwork to learn discriminative features. Besides, a novel symmetric triplet loss function is introduced to supervise feature learning, in which the intra-class distance is minimized and the inter-class distance is maximized in each triplet unit, simultaneously. Training our FANN in a multi-task learning framework, a discriminative feature representation can be learned to find out the matched reference to each probe among various candidates in the gallery. Extensive experimental results on several public benchmark datasets are evaluated, which have shown clear improvements of our method over the state-of-the-art approaches.
Person re-identification (reID) by CNNs based networks has achieved favorable performance in recent years. However, most of existing CNNs based methods do not take full advantage of spatial-temporal context modeling. In fact, the global spatial-tempo ral context can greatly clarify local distractions to enhance the target feature representation. To comprehensively leverage the spatial-temporal context information, in this work, we present a novel block, Interaction-Aggregation-Update (IAU), for high-performance person reID. Firstly, Spatial-Temporal IAU (STIAU) module is introduced. STIAU jointly incorporates two types of contextual interactions into a CNN framework for target feature learning. Here the spatial interactions learn to compute the contextual dependencies between different body parts of a single frame. While the temporal interactions are used to capture the contextual dependencies between the same body parts across all frames. Furthermore, a Channel IAU (CIAU) module is designed to model the semantic contextual interactions between channel features to enhance the feature representation, especially for small-scale visual cues and body parts. Therefore, the IAU block enables the feature to incorporate the globally spatial, temporal, and channel context. It is lightweight, end-to-end trainable, and can be easily plugged into existing CNNs to form IAUnet. The experiments show that IAUnet performs favorably against state-of-the-art on both image and video reID tasks and achieves compelling results on a general object categorization task.

High performance person Re-Identification (Re-ID) requires the model to focus on both global silhouette and local details of pedestrian. To extract such more representative features, an effective way is to exploit deep models with multiple branches. However, most multi-branch based methods implemented by duplication of part backbone structure normally lead to severe increase of computational cost. In this paper, we propose a lightweight Feature Pyramid Branch (FPB) to extract features from different layers of networks and aggregate them in a bidirectional pyramid structure. Cooperated by attention modules and our proposed cross orthogonality regularization, FPB significantly prompts the performance of backbone network by only introducing less than 1.5M extra parameters. Extensive experimental results on standard benchmark datasets demonstrate that our proposed FPB based model outperforms state-of-the-art methods with obvious margin as well as much less model complexity. FPB borrows the idea of the Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) from prevailing object detection methods. To our best knowledge, it is the first successful application of similar structure in person Re-ID tasks, which empirically proves that pyramid network as affiliated branch could be a potential structure in related feature embedding models.
