• Abstract: Generalizable person Re-Identification (ReID) has attracted growing attention in recent computer vision community, as it offers ready-to-use ReID models without the need for model retraining in new environments. In this work, we introduce causality into person ReID and propose a novel generalizable framework, named Domain Invariant Representations for generalizable person Re-Identification (DIR-ReID). We assume the data generation process is controlled by two sets of factors, i.e. identity-specific factors containing identity related cues, and domain-specific factors describing other scene-related information which cause distribution shifts across domains. With the assumption above, a novel Multi-Domain Disentangled Adversarial Network (MDDAN) is designed to disentangle these two sets of factors. Furthermore, a Causal Data Augmentation (CDA) block is proposed to perform feature-level data augmentation for better domain-invariant representations, which can be explained as interventions on latent factors from a causal learning perspective. Extensive experiments have been conducted, showing that DIR-ReID outperforms state-of-the-art methods on large-scale domain generalization (DG) ReID benchmarks. Moreover, a theoretical analysis is provided for a better understanding of our method.

  A key challenge in visible-infrared person re-identification (V-I ReID) is training a backbone model capable of effectively addressing the significant discrepancies across modalities. This paper introduces the Bidirectional Multi-step Domain Generalization, a novel approach for unifying feature representations across diverse modalities. Experiments conducted on challenging V-I ReID datasets indicate that our BMDG approach outperforms state-of-the-art part-based models or methods that generate an intermediate domain from V-I person ReID.

  Causality has been combined with machine learning to produce robust representations for domain generalization. We make a different attempt by leveraging the demonstration data distribution to discover causal features for a domain generalizable policy. We design a novel framework, called DIGIC, to identify the causal features by finding the direct cause of the expert action from the demonstration data distribution.

  Domain generalization person re-identification (DG Re-ID) aims to directly deploy a model trained on the source domain to the unseen target domain with good generalization. In the existing DG Re-ID methods, invariant operations are effective in extracting domain generalization features. An Attention-aware Multi-operation Strategery (AMS) for DG Re-ID is proposed to extract more generalized features.
