Occluded person re-identification (ReID) aims to match person images with occlusion. It is fundamentally challenging because of the serious occlusion which aggravates the misalignment problem between images. At the cost of incorporating a pose estimator, many works introduce pose information to alleviate the misalignment in both training and testing. To achieve high accuracy while preserving low inference complexity, we propose a network named Pose-Guided Feature Learning with Knowledge Distillation (PGFL-KD), where the pose information is exploited to regularize the learning of semantics aligned features but is discarded in testing. PGFL-KD consists of a main branch (MB), and two pose-guided branches, ieno, a foreground-enhanced branch (FEB), and a body part semantics aligned branch (SAB). The FEB intends to emphasise the features of visible body parts while excluding the interference of obstructions and background (ieno, foreground feature alignment). The SAB encourages different channel groups to focus on different body parts to have body part semantics aligned representation. To get rid of the dependency on pose information when testing, we regularize the MB to learn the merits of the FEB and SAB through knowledge distillation and interaction-based training. Extensive experiments on occluded, partial, and holistic ReID tasks show the effectiveness of our proposed network.

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 source code is available at https://github.com/blue-blue272/OccludedReID-RFCnet.
Person Re-Identification (Re-Id) in occlusion scenarios is a challenging problem because a pedestrian can be partially occluded. The use of local information for feature extraction and matching is still necessary. Therefore, we propose a Pose-guided
inter-and intra-part relational transformer (Pirt) for occluded person Re-Id, which builds part-aware long-term correlations by introducing transformers. In our framework, we firstly develop a pose-guided feature extraction module with regional grouping and mask construction for robust feature representations. The positions of a pedestrian in the image under surveillance scenarios are relatively fixed, hence we propose an intra-part and inter-part relational transformer. The intra-part module creates local relations with mask-guided features, while the inter-part relationship builds correlations with transformers, to develop cross relationships between part nodes. With the collaborative learning inter- and intra-part relationships, experiments reveal that our proposed Pirt model achieves a new state of the art on the public occluded dataset, and further extensions on standard non-occluded person Re-Id datasets also reveal our comparable performances.
Person re-identification (re-id) suffers from a serious occlusion problem when applied to crowded public places. In this paper, we propose to retrieve a full-body person image by using a person image with occlusions. This differs significantly from t
he conventional person re-id problem where it is assumed that person images are detected without any occlusion. We thus call this new problem the occluded person re-identitification. To address this new problem, we propose a novel Attention Framework of Person Body (AFPB) based on deep learning, consisting of 1) an Occlusion Simulator (OS) which automatically generates artificial occlusions for full-body person images, and 2) multi-task losses that force the neural network not only to discriminate a persons identity but also to determine whether a sample is from the occluded data distribution or the full-body data distribution. Experiments on a new occluded person re-id dataset and three existing benchmarks modified to include full-body person images and occluded person images show the superiority of the proposed method.
Despite the great progress of person re-identification (ReID) with the adoption of Convolutional Neural Networks, current ReID models are opaque and only outputs a scalar distance between two persons. There are few methods providing users semanticall
y understandable explanations for why two persons are the same one or not. In this paper, we propose a post-hoc method, named Attribute-guided Metric Distillation (AMD), to explain existing ReID models. This is the first method to explore attributes to answer: 1) what and where the attributes make two persons different, and 2) how much each attribute contributes to the difference. In AMD, we design a pluggable interpreter network for target models to generate quantitative contributions of attributes and visualize accurate attention maps of the most discriminative attributes. To achieve this goal, we propose a metric distillation loss by which the interpreter learns to decompose the distance of two persons into components of attributes with knowledge distilled from the target model. Moreover, we propose an attribute prior loss to make the interpreter generate attribute-guided attention maps and to eliminate biases caused by the imbalanced distribution of attributes. This loss can guide the interpreter to focus on the exclusive and discriminative attributes rather than the large-area but common attributes of two persons. Comprehensive experiments show that the interpreter can generate effective and intuitive explanations for varied models and generalize well under cross-domain settings. As a by-product, the accuracy of target models can be further improved with our interpreter.
In real-world video surveillance applications, person re-identification (ReID) suffers from the effects of occlusions and detection errors. Despite recent advances, occlusions continue to corrupt the features extracted by state-of-art CNN backbones,
and thereby deteriorate the accuracy of ReID systems. To address this issue, methods in the literature use an additional costly process such as pose estimation, where pose maps provide supervision to exclude occluded regions. In contrast, we introduce a novel Holistic Guidance (HG) method that relies only on person identity labels, and on the distribution of pairwise matching distances of datasets to alleviate the problem of occlusion, without requiring additional supervision. Hence, our proposed student-teacher framework is trained to address the occlusion problem by matching the distributions of between- and within-class distances (DCDs) of occluded samples with that of holistic (non-occluded) samples, thereby using the latter as a soft labeled reference to learn well separated DCDs. This approach is supported by our empirical study where the distribution of between- and within-class distances between images have more overlap in occluded than holistic datasets. In particular, features extracted from both datasets are jointly learned using the student model to produce an attention map that allows separating visible regions from occluded ones. In addition to this, a joint generative-discriminative backbone is trained with a denoising autoencoder, allowing the system to self-recover from occlusions. Extensive experiments on several challenging public datasets indicate that the proposed approach can outperform state-of-the-art methods on both occluded and holistic datasets
