• Abstract: Supervised person re-identification methods rely heavily on high-quality cross-camera training label. This significantly hinders the deployment of re-ID models in real-world applications. The unsupervised person re-ID methods can reduce the cost of data annotation, but their performance is still far lower than the supervised ones. In this paper, we make full use of the auxiliary information mined from the datasets for multi-modal feature learning, including camera information, temporal information and spatial information. By analyzing the style bias of cameras, the characteristics of pedestrians' motion trajectories and the positions of camera network, this paper designs three modules: Time-Overlapping Constraint (TOC), Spatio-Temporal Similarity (STS) and Same-Camera Penalty (SCP) to exploit the auxiliary information. Auxiliary information can improve the model performance and inference accuracy by constructing association constraints or fusing with visual features. In addition, this paper proposes three effective training tricks, including Restricted Label Smoothing Cross Entropy Loss (RLSCE), Weight Adaptive Triplet Loss (WATL) and Dynamic Training Iterations (DTI). The tricks achieve mAP of 72.4% and 81.1% on MARS and DukeMTMC-VideoReID, respectively. Combined with auxiliary information exploiting modules, our methods achieve mAP of 89.9% on DukeMTMC, where TOC, STS and SCP all contributed considerable performance improvements. The method proposed by this paper outperforms most existing unsupervised re-ID methods and narrows the gap between unsupervised and supervised re-ID methods.

  Current research faces challenges in balancing between receptive fields and reducing interference when aggregating multi-view features. This paper proposes a divided view method, in which features are modeled globally via the visibility crossattention mechanism, but interact only with partial features in a divided local virtual space. Our framework, named DVPE, achieves state-of-the-art performance (57.2% mAP and 64.5% NDS) on the nuScenes test set.

  We propose camera-tracklet-aware contrastive learning (CTACL) using the multi-camera tracklet information without vehicle identity labels. The proposed CTACL divides an unlabelled domain, i.e., entire vehicle images, into multiple camera-level images and conducts contrastive learning. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on video-based and image-based vehicle Re-ID datasets.

  We present a novel selective tracklet learning (STL) approach that can train discriminative person re-id models from unlabelled tracklet data. This avoids the tedious and costly process of exhaustively labelling person image/tracklet true matching pairs across camera views. Our method is particularly more robust against arbitrary noisy data of raw tracklets therefore scalable to learning discriminative models from unconstrained tracking data.

  This paper tackles the purely unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) problem that requires no annotations. We propose to split each single cluster into multiple proxies and each proxy represents the instances coming from the same camera. Based on the camera-aware proxies, we design both intra- and inter-camera contrastive learning components for our Re-ID model.
