Title
Common-near-neighbor analysis for person re-identification
Abstract
Person re-identification tackles the problem whether an observed person of interest reappears in a network of cameras. The difficulty primarily originates from few samples per class but large amounts of intra-class variations in real scenarios: illumination, pose and viewpoint changes across cameras. So far, proposals in the literature have treated this either as a matching problem focusing on feature representation or as a classification/ranking problem relying on metric optimization. This paper presents a new way called Common-Near-Neighbor Analysis, which to some extent combines the strengths of these two methodologies. It analyzes the commonness of the near neighbors of each pair of samples in a learned metric space, measured by a novel rank-order based dissimilarity. Our method, using only color cue, has been tested on widely-used benchmark datasets, showing significant performance improvement over the state-of-the-art.
