• Authors: Hao Chen, Benoit Lagadec, Francois Bremond
• Abstract summary: Unsupervised lifelong person ReID focuses on continuously conducting unsupervised domain adaptation on new domains. We set an image-to-image similarity constraint between old and new models to regularize the model updates in a way that suits old knowledge. Our proposed lifelong method achieves strong generalizability, which significantly outperforms previous lifelong methods on both seen and unseen domains.

• Abstract: Existing unsupervised person re-identification (ReID) methods focus on adapting a model trained on a source domain to a fixed target domain. However, an adapted ReID model usually only works well on a certain target domain, but can hardly memorize the source domain knowledge and generalize to upcoming unseen data. In this paper, we propose unsupervised lifelong person ReID, which focuses on continuously conducting unsupervised domain adaptation on new domains without forgetting the knowledge learnt from old domains. To tackle unsupervised lifelong ReID, we conduct a contrastive rehearsal on a small number of stored old samples while sequentially adapting to new domains. We further set an image-to-image similarity constraint between old and new models to regularize the model updates in a way that suits old knowledge. We sequentially train our model on several large-scale datasets in an unsupervised manner and test it on all seen domains as well as several unseen domains to validate the generalizability of our method. Our proposed unsupervised lifelong method achieves strong generalizability, which significantly outperforms previous lifelong methods on both seen and unseen domains.

  Person re-identification (Re-ID) has achieved great success in the supervised scenario. It is difficult to directly transfer the supervised model to arbitrary unseen domains due to the model overfitting to the seen source domains. We propose MixNorm, which consists of domain-aware mix-normalization (DMN) and domain-ware center regularization (DCR)

  Lifelong person re-identification (LReID) enables to learn continuously across multiple domains.

Our method alleviates catastrophic forgetting on seen domains and demonstrates the ability to generalize to unseen domains.

  Person Re-Identification (ReID) across non-overlapping cameras is a challenging task. Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) is a promising alternative, as it performs feature-learning adaptation from a model trained on a source to a target domain without identity-label annotation. In this paper, we propose a novel UDA-based ReID method that takes advantage of triplets of samples created by a new offline strategy.

  Most standard learning approaches lead to fragile models which are prone to drift when sequentially trained on samples of a different nature. We show that one way to learn models that are inherently more robust against forgetting is domain randomization. We devise a meta-learning strategy where a regularizer explicitly penalizes any loss associated with transferring the model from the current domain to different "auxiliary" meta-domains.

  Large-scale labeled training datasets have enabled deep neural networks to excel across a wide range of benchmark vision tasks. In many applications, it is prohibitively expensive and time-consuming to obtain large quantities of labeled data. To cope with limited labeled training data, many have attempted to directly apply models trained on a large-scale labeled source domain to another sparsely labeled or unlabeled target domain.
