• Abstract summary: Person re-identification (Re-ID) aims to match a target person across camera views at different locations and times. Existing Re-ID studies focus on the short-term cloth-consistent setting, under which a person re-appears in different camera views with the same outfit. In this work, we focus on a much more difficult yet practical setting where person matching is conducted over long-duration, e.g., over days and months.

• Abstract: Person re-identification (Re-ID) aims to match a target person across camera views at different locations and times. Existing Re-ID studies focus on the short-term cloth-consistent setting, under which a person re-appears in different camera views with the same outfit. A discriminative feature representation learned by existing deep Re-ID models is thus dominated by the visual appearance of clothing. In this work, we focus on a much more difficult yet practical setting where person matching is conducted over long-duration, e.g., over days and months and therefore inevitably under the new challenge of changing clothes. This problem, termed Long-Term Cloth-Changing (LTCC) Re-ID is much understudied due to the lack of large scale datasets. The first contribution of this work is a new LTCC dataset containing people captured over a long period of time with frequent clothing changes. As a second contribution, we propose a novel Re-ID method specifically designed to address the cloth-changing challenge. Specifically, we consider that under cloth-changes, soft-biometrics such as body shape would be more reliable. We, therefore, introduce a shape embedding module as well as a cloth-elimination shape-distillation module aiming to eliminate the now unreliable clothing appearance features and focus on the body shape information. Extensive experiments show that superior performance is achieved by the proposed model on the new LTCC dataset. The code and dataset will be available at https://naiq.github.io/LTCC_Perosn_ReID.html.

  We aim to extend LT-ReID beyond pedestrian recognition to include a wider range of real-world human activities. This setting poses additional challenges due to the geometric misalignment and appearance ambiguity caused by the diversity of human pose and clothing. We propose a new approach 3DInvarReID for disentangling identity from non-identity components.

  We investigate unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) with clothes change. Most existing re-id methods artificially assume the clothes of every single person to be stationary across space and time. We introduce a novel Curriculum Person Clustering (CPC) method that can adaptively regulate the unsupervised clustering criterion.

  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 person's clothing may change, and different persons may wearing similar clothes. It is critical to learn an apparel-invariant person representation under cases like cloth changing or several persons wearing similar clothes.

  Person re-identification (re-ID) aims to recognize instances of the same person contained in multiple images taken across different cameras. We propose a novel representation learning model which is able to generate a body shape feature representation without being affected by clothing color or patterns. Case-Net learns a representation of identity that depends only on body shape via adversarial learning and feature disentanglement.
