• Abstract: Incremental learning for person re-identification (ReID) aims to develop models that can be trained with a continuous data stream, which is a more practical setting for real-world applications. However, the existing incremental ReID methods make two strong assumptions that the cameras are fixed and the new-emerging data is class-disjoint from previous classes. This is unrealistic as previously observed pedestrians may re-appear and be captured again by new cameras. In this paper, we investigate person ReID in an unexplored scenario named Camera Incremental Person ReID (CIPR), which advances existing lifelong person ReID by taking into account the class overlap issue. Specifically, new data collected from new cameras may probably contain an unknown proportion of identities seen before. This subsequently leads to the lack of cross-camera annotations for new data due to privacy concerns. To address these challenges, we propose a novel framework ExtendOVA. First, to handle the class overlap issue, we introduce an instance-wise seen-class identification module to discover previously seen identities at the instance level. Then, we propose a criterion for selecting confident ID-wise candidates and also devise an early learning regularization term to correct noise issues in pseudo labels. Furthermore, to compensate for the lack of previous data, we resort prototypical memory bank to create surrogate features, along with a cross-camera distillation loss to further retain the inter-camera relationship. The comprehensive experimental results on multiple benchmarks show that ExtendOVA significantly outperforms the state-of-the-arts with remarkable advantages.

  Occluded Person Re-Identification (ReID) is a metric learning task that involves matching occluded individuals based on their appearance. We introduce Keypoint Promptable ReID (KPR), a novel formulation of the ReID problem that explicitly complements the input bounding box with a set of semantic keypoints. We release custom keypoint labels for four popular ReID benchmarks. Experiments on person retrieval, but also on pose tracking, demonstrate that our method systematically surpasses previous state-of-the-art approaches.

  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.

  We propose a novel person re-identification paradigm based on an idea of independent per-camera identity annotation. This eliminates the most time-consuming and tedious inter-camera identity labelling process. We formulate a Multi-tAsk mulTi-labEl (MATE) deep learning method for Intra-Camera Supervised (ICS) person re-id.

  Intra-camera supervision (ICS) for person re-identification (Re-ID) assumes that identity labels are independently annotated within each camera view. Lack of inter-camera labels makes the ICS Re-ID problem much more challenging than the fully supervised counterpart. Our approach performs even comparable to state-of-the-art fully supervised methods in two of the datasets.

We force the image data of all cameras to fall onto the same subspace, so that the distribution gap between any camera pair is largely shrunk. Experiments on a wide range of ReID tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
