• Abstract: Recently, cluster contrastive learning has been proven effective for person ReID by computing the contrastive loss between the individual feature and the cluster memory. However, existing methods that use the individual feature to momentum update the cluster memory are not robust to the noisy samples, such as the samples with wrong annotated labels or the pseudo-labels. Unlike the individual-based updating mechanism, the centroid-based updating mechanism that applies the mean feature of each cluster to update the cluster memory is robust against minority noisy samples. Therefore, we formulate the individual-based updating and centroid-based updating mechanisms in a unified cluster contrastive framework, named Dual Cluster Contrastive learning (DCC), which maintains two types of memory banks: individual and centroid cluster memory banks. Significantly, the individual cluster memory is momentum updated based on the individual feature.The centroid cluster memory applies the mean feature of each cluter to update the corresponding cluster memory. Besides the vallina contrastive loss for each memory, a consistency constraint is applied to guarantee the consistency of the output of two memories. Note that DCC can be easily applied for unsupervised or supervised person ReID by using ground-truth labels or pseudo-labels generated with clustering method, respectively. Extensive experiments on two benchmarks under supervised person ReID and unsupervised person ReID demonstrate the superior of the proposed DCC.

We propose an Implicit Sample Extension (OurWholeMethod) method to generate what we call support samples around the cluster boundaries. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method is effective and achieves state-of-the-art performance for unsupervised person Re-ID.

  Unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) attracts increasing attention due to its potential to resolve the scalability problem of supervised Re-ID models. Most existing unsupervised methods adopt an iterative clustering mechanism, where the network was trained based on pseudo labels generated by unsupervised clustering. To generate high-quality pseudo-labels and mitigate the impact of clustering errors, we propose a novel clustering relationship modeling framework for unsupervised person Re-ID.

Previous methods utilize features obtained at different training iterations to represent one centroid. We propose an unsupervised re-ID approach with a learning strategy.

  We extend the mainstream contrastive learning paradigm to a cluster-level scheme, where all the data subjected to the same cluster contribute to a unified representation. We define a set of categorical variables as clustering assignment confidence, which links the instance-level learning track with the cluster-level one. By reparametrizing the assignment variables, TCC is trained end-to-end, requiring no alternating steps.

  Online Deep Clustering (ODC) performs clustering and network update simultaneously rather than alternatingly. We design and maintain two dynamic memory modules, i.e., samples memory to store samples labels and features, and centroids memory for centroids evolution. In this way, labels and the network evolve shoulder-to-shoulder rather than alternatingly.
