Day #236 - Papers on Person Re-Identification

Paper #1 - Camera Style Adaptation for Person Re-identification

Key Lessons
  • Person Reidentification - Given Query Person, Retrieve person from multiple sources
  • Challenges - Resolution, Environment, Illumination
  • Camera Style Adaptation Approach - unsupervised, camera-invariant property
Techniques
  • Input image pairs are partitioned into three overlapping horizontal parts respectively, and through a siamese CNN model to learn the similarity of them using cosine distance
Paper #2 - SIMPLE ONLINE AND REALTIME TRACKING WITH A DEEP ASSOCIATION METRIC
Techniques
  • Kalman filtering in image space and frame by frame
  • Kalman filter with constant velocity motion
Paper #3 - In Defense of the Triplet Loss for Person Re-Identification
Techniques
  • A plain CNN with a triplet loss 
Triplet Loss
Key Lessons
  • Look at Anchor, Distance with Positive Example, Distance with Negative Example
  • 3 Images at a time Anchor, Positive, Negative Image
  • APNN
  • d(A,P) = 0.5 Set Margin to achieve it for positive / negative
  • L(A,P,N) = Max(||f(A)-f(P)||^2 - ||f(A)-f(N)||^2 + Alpha)
  • Chosing Triplets Randomly
  • Map Training Set into Triple
Example - Link1, Link2



Happy Mastering DL!!!
