Pedestrian attribute recognition, which can benefit other tasks such as person re-identification and pedestrian retrieval, is very important in video surveillance related tasks. In this paper, we observe that the existing methods tackle this problem from the perspective of multi-label classification without considering the hierarchical relationships among the attributes. In human cognition, the attributes can be categorized according to their semantic/abstraction levels. The high-level attributes can be predicted by reasoning from the low-level and medium-level attributes, while the recognition of the low-level and medium-level attributes can be guided by the high-level attributes. Based on this attribute categorization, we propose a novel Hierarchical Reasoning Network (HR-Net), which can hierarchically predict the attributes at different abstraction levels in different stages of the network. We also propose an attribute reasoning structure to exploit the relationships among the attributes at different semantic levels. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed network gives superior performances compared to the state-of-the-art techniques. |
