• Abstract: We consider the problem of identifying people based on their motion styles. We present a generative model describing the action instance creation process and derive a probabilistic identity inference scheme for two common person identification scenarios motivated by the surveillance and authentication applications. We introduce a novel, \emph{interactive}, scenario for person identification from motion patterns. To this end, we formalize the identification process in the context of a sequential message exchange session between the subject and the system. The subject's behavior is modeled using a probabilistic generative model inspired by the Human Information Processing (HIP) paradigm. At each stage, the system presents a visual stimulus (a cue) to the subject and records their motion response. The cue is selected so as to maximize the mutual information of the expected response and the subject's identity. Once recorded, the response is used to update the a posteriori probability over possible subjects' identities. The process terminates once a sufficient classification confidence level is reached. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time person identification is addressed in such interactive setting. We report high recognition rates on five publicly available datasets and our own novel dataset consisting of 4,476 recordings of 22 test subjects responding to 15 cues.

  Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have made remarkable progress in document-based Visual Question Answering (i.e., responding to queries about the contents of an input document provided as an image) We show these models can memorise responses for training samples and regurgitate them even when the relevant visual information has been removed. This includes Personal Identifiable Information repeated once in the training set, indicating these models could divulge sensitive information and therefore pose a privacy risk.

Our results suggest that recognizing people by their gait in real surveillance scenarios is feasible and the underlying gait pattern is probably the true reason why video person re-idenfification works in practice.

  We develop a novel Modality-Free Human Identification (named MFHI) task as a generic zero-shot learning model in a scalable way. It is capable of bridging the visual and semantic modalities by learning a discriminative prototype of each identity. In addition, the semantics-guided spatial attention is enforced on visual modality to obtain representations with both high global category-level and local attribute-level discrimination.
