• Abstract: Although person re-identification has made impressive progress, occlusion caused by obstacles remains an unsettled issue in real applications. The difficulty lies in the mismatch between incomplete occluded samples and holistic identity representations. Severe occlusion removes discriminative body cues and introduces interference from background clutter and occluders, making global metric learning unreliable. Existing methods mainly rely on extra pre-trained models to estimate visible parts for alignment or construct occluded samples via data augmentation, but still lack a unified framework that learns robust visibility-consistent matching under realistic occlusion patterns. In this paper, we propose DPM++, a Dynamic Masked Metric Learning framework for occluded person re-identification. DPM++ learns an input-adaptive masked metric that dynamically selects reliable identity subspaces for each occluded instance, enabling matching to emphasize visibility-consistent evidence while suppressing unreliable components. Built upon the classifier-prototype space, DPM++ introduces a CLIP-based two-stage supervision scheme, where ID-level semantic priors are learned from the text branch and transferred into the classifier-prototype space for dynamic masked matching. To strengthen the masked metric, we introduce a saliency-guided patch transfer strategy to synthesize controllable and photo-realistic occluded samples during training. Exploiting real scene priors, this strategy exposes the model to realistic partial observations and provides richer supervision than random erasing. In addition, occlusion-aware sample pairing and mask-guided optimization improve the stability and effectiveness of the framework. Experiments on occluded and holistic person re-identification benchmarks show that DPM++ consistently outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods in both holistic and occlusion scenarios.
