Learning part-based features with multiple branches has been proven as an effective way to deliver high performance person re-identification. Existing works mostly exploit extra constraints on different branches to ensure the diversity of extracted features, which may lead to the increased complexity in network architecture and the difficulty for training. In this letter, we propose a quite simple multi-branch structure consisting of a global branch as well as a part branch in an asymmetrical way. We empirically demonstrate that such simple architecture can provide surprisingly high performance without imposing any extra constraint. On top of this, we further prompt the performance with a lightweight implementation of attention module. Extensive experimental results prove that the proposed method, termed Asymmetrical Network (AsNet), outperforms state-of-the-art methods with obvious margin on standard benchmark datasets such as Market1501, DukeMTMC, CUHK03. We believe that AsNet can serve as a strong baseline for related research and the source code is publicly available at https://github.com/www0wwwjs1/asnet.git. |
