A Hierarchical Processing and Completion Mechanism of Foreground Information for Person Re-Identification

Abstract

Person re-identification (Re-ID) arises in many applications such as video surveillance and intelligent security. Background clutter and distribution drift are two issues that cross-domain person Re-ID faces. In this research, we propose that the background clutter problem be solved by combining semantic segmentation technology with human attribute identification technology. To overcome the distribution drift problem, we propose employing MMD as a metric for distribution differences and processing methods based on feature properties. The results of the experiments reveal that our strategy yielded the best results.
