• Abstract: Part feature learning is a critical technology for finegrained semantic understanding in vehicle re-identification. However, recent unsupervised re-identification works exhibit serious gradient collapse issues when directly modeling the part features and global features. To address this problem, in this paper, we propose a novel Triplet Contrastive Learning framework (TCL) which leverages cluster features to bridge the part features and global features. Specifically, TCL devises three memory banks to store the features according to their attributes and proposes a proxy contrastive loss (PCL) to make contrastive learning between adjacent memory banks, thus presenting the associations between the part and global features as a transition of the partcluster and cluster-global associations. Since the cluster memory bank deals with all the instance features, it can summarize them into a discriminative feature representation. To deeply exploit the instance information, TCL proposes two additional loss functions. For the inter-class instance, a hybrid contrastive loss (HCL) re-defines the sample correlations by approaching the positive cluster features and leaving the all negative instance features. For the intra-class instances, a weighted regularization cluster contrastive loss (WRCCL) refines the pseudo labels by penalizing the mislabeled images according to the instance similarity. Extensive experiments show that TCL outperforms many state-of-the-art unsupervised vehicle re-identification approaches. The code will be available at https://github.com/muzishen/TCL.

• Learning Label Hierarchy with Supervised Contrastive Learning [8.488965459026678]
  Supervised contrastive learning (SCL) frameworks treat each class as independent and thus consider all classes to be equally important. This paper introduces a family of Label-Aware SCL methods (LASCL) that incorporates hierarchical information to SCL by leveraging similarities between classes. Experiments on three datasets show that the proposed LASCL works well on text classification of distinguishing a single label among multi-labels.

  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.

  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.
