• Title: Pose Invariant Person Re-Identification using Robust Pose-transformation GAN
• Authors: Arnab Karmakar and Deepak Mishra
• Abstract summary: Person re-identification (re-ID) aims to retrieve a person's images from an image gallery, given a single instance of the person of interest. Despite several advancements, learning discriminative identity-sensitive and viewpoint invariant features for robust Person Re-identification is a major challenge owing to large pose variation of humans. This paper proposes a re-ID pipeline that utilizes the image generation capability of Generative Adversarial Networks combined with pose regression and feature fusion to achieve pose invariant feature learning.

• Abstract: Person re-identification (re-ID) aims to retrieve a person's images from an image gallery, given a single instance of the person of interest. Despite several advancements, learning discriminative identity-sensitive and viewpoint invariant features for robust Person Re-identification is a major challenge owing to large pose variation of humans. This paper proposes a re-ID pipeline that utilizes the image generation capability of Generative Adversarial Networks combined with pose regression and feature fusion to achieve pose invariant feature learning. The objective is to model a given person under different viewpoints and large pose changes and extract the most discriminative features from all the appearances. The pose transformational GAN (pt-GAN) module is trained to generate a person's image in any given pose. In order to identify the most significant poses for discriminative feature extraction, a Pose Regression module is proposed. The given instance of the person is modelled in varying poses and these features are effectively combined through the Feature Fusion Network. The final re-ID model consisting of these 3 sub-blocks, alleviates the pose dependence in person re-ID and outperforms the state-of-the-art GAN based models for re-ID in 4 benchmark datasets. The proposed model is robust to occlusion, scale and illumination, thereby outperforms the state-of-the-art models in terms of improvement over baseline.
