Person re-identification is the challenging task of identifying a person across different camera views. Training a convolutional neural network (CNN) for this task requires annotating a large dataset, and hence, it involves the time-consuming manual matching of people across cameras. To reduce the need for labeled data, we focus on a semi-supervised approach that requires only a subset of the training data to be labeled. We conduct a comprehensive survey in the area of person re-identification with limited labels. Existing works in this realm are limited in the sense that they utilize features from multiple CNNs and require the number of identities in the unlabeled data to be known. To overcome these limitations, we propose to employ part-based features from a single CNN without requiring the knowledge of the label space (i.e., the number of identities). This makes our approach more suitable for practical scenarios, and it significantly reduces the need for computational resources. We also propose a PartMixUp loss that improves the discriminative ability of learned part-based features for pseudo-labeling in semi-supervised settings. Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art results on three large-scale person re-id datasets and achieves the same level of performance as fully supervised methods with only one-third of labeled identities.

Existing person re-identification (re-id) methods are stuck when deployed to a new unseen scenario despite the success in cross-camera person matching. Recent efforts have been substantially devoted to domain adaptive person re-id where extensive unl abeled data in the new scenario are utilized in a transductive learning manner. However, for each scenario, it is required to first collect enough data and then train such a domain adaptive re-id model, thus restricting their practical application. Instead, we aim to explore multiple labeled datasets to learn generalized domain-invariant representations for person re-id, which is expected universally effective for each new-coming re-id scenario. To pursue practicability in real-world systems, we collect all the person re-id datasets (20 datasets) in this field and select the three most frequently used datasets (i.e., Market1501, DukeMTMC, and MSMT17) as unseen target domains. In addition, we develop DataHunter that collects over 300K+ weak annotated images named YouTube-Human from YouTube street-view videos, which joins 17 remaining full labeled datasets to form multiple source domains. On such a large and challenging benchmark called FastHuman (~440K+ labeled images), we further propose a simple yet effective Semi-Supervised Knowledge Distillation (SSKD) framework. SSKD effectively exploits the weakly annotated data by assigning soft pseudo labels to YouTube-Human to improve models generalization ability. Experiments on several protocols verify the effectiveness of the proposed SSKD framework on domain generalizable person re-id, which is even comparable to supervised learning on the target domains. Lastly, but most importantly, we hope the proposed benchmark FastHuman could bring the next development of domain generalizable person re-id algorithms.
Existing person re-identification (re-id) methods mostly exploit a large set of cross-camera identity labelled training data. This requires a tedious data collection and annotation process, leading to poor scalability in practical re-id applications. On the other hand unsupervised re-id methods do not need identity label information, but they usually suffer from much inferior and insufficient model performance. To overcome these fundamental limitations, we propose a novel person re-identification paradigm based on an idea of independent per-camera identity annotation. This eliminates the most time-consuming and tedious inter-camera identity labelling process, significantly reducing the amount of human annotation efforts. Consequently, it gives rise to a more scalable and more feasible setting, which we call Intra-Camera Supervised (ICS) person re-id, for which we formulate a Multi-tAsk mulTi-labEl (MATE) deep learning method. Specifically, MATE is designed for self-discovering the cross-camera identity correspondence in a per-camera multi-task inference framework. Extensive experiments demonstrate the cost-effectiveness superiority of our method over the alternative approaches on three large person re-id datasets. For example, MATE yields 88.7% rank-1 score on Market-1501 in the proposed ICS person re-id setting, significantly outperforming unsupervised learning models and closely approaching conventional fully supervised learning competitors.
Person re-identification (re-ID) requires one to match images of the same person across camera views. As a more challenging task, semi-supervised re-ID tackles the problem that only a number of identities in training data are fully labeled, while the remaining are unlabeled. Assuming that such labeled and unlabeled training data share disjoint identity labels, we propose a novel framework of Semantics-Guided Clustering with Deep Progressive Learning (SGC-DPL) to jointly exploit the above data. By advancing the proposed Semantics-Guided Affinity Propagation (SG-AP), we are able to assign pseudo-labels to selected unlabeled data in a progressive fashion, under the semantics guidance from the labeled ones. As a result, our approach is able to augment the labeled training data in the semi-supervised setting. Our experiments on two large-scale person re-ID benchmarks demonstrate the superiority of our SGC-DPL over state-of-the-art methods across different degrees of supervision. In extension, the generalization ability of our SGC-DPL is also verified in other tasks like vehicle re-ID or image retrieval with the semi-supervised setting.
Intra-camera supervision (ICS) for person re-identification (Re-ID) assumes that identity labels are independently annotated within each camera view and no inter-camera identity association is labeled. It is a new setting proposed recently to reduce the burden of annotation while expect to maintain desirable Re-ID performance. However, the lack of inter-camera labels makes the ICS Re-ID problem much more challenging than the fully supervised counterpart. By investigating the characteristics of ICS, this paper proposes camera-specific non-parametric classifiers, together with a hybrid mining quintuplet loss, to perform intra-camera learning. Then, an inter-camera learning module consisting of a graph-based ID association step and a Re-ID model updating step is conducted. Extensive experiments on three large-scale Re-ID datasets show that our approach outperforms all existing ICS works by a great margin. Our approach performs even comparable to state-of-the-art fully supervised methods in two of the datasets.
Most state-of-the-art person re-identification (re-id) methods depend on supervised model learning with a large set of cross-view identity labelled training data. Even worse, such trained models are limited to only the same-domain deployment with sig nificantly degraded cross-domain generalization capability, i.e. domain specific. To solve this limitation, there are a number of recent unsupervised domain adaptation and unsupervised learning methods that leverage unlabelled target domain training data. However, these methods need to train a separate model for each target domain as supervised learning methods. This conventional {em train once, run once} pattern is unscalable to a large number of target domains typically encountered in real-world deployments. We address this problem by presenting a train once, run everywhere pattern industry-scale systems are desperate for. We formulate a universal model learning approach enabling domain-generic person re-id using only limited training data of a {em single} seed domain. Specifically, we train a universal re-id deep model to discriminate between a set of transformed person identity classes. Each of such classes is formed by applying a variety of random appearance transformations to the images of that class, where the transformations simulate the camera viewing conditions of any domains for making the model training domain generic. Extensive evaluations show the superiority of our method for universal person re-id over a wide variety of state-of-the-art unsupervised domain adaptation and unsupervised learning re-id methods on five standard benchmarks: Market-1501, DukeMTMC, CUHK03, MSMT17, and VIPeR.
