Abstract
This paper addresses images-to-images person re-identification (ReID) in which there are multiple images for each individual on both gallery and probe. Most existing approaches that try to extract/learn features require temporal linking between frames. This paper proposes a novel framework to overcome this requirement by formulating images-to-images person re-identification as a fusion function of image-to-images. First, a ranked list of candidates corresponding to each query image is determined. Then, these lists are fused to determine the matched person. The contributions of the paper are two-fold: 1) an extra feature [Gaussian of Gaussian (GOG)] is used for representing person; 2) new images-to images scheme that does not require temporal linking and features the benefit of image-to-images scheme is proposed. Extensive experiments on CAVIAR4REID (cases A and B) and RAiD datasets prove the effectiveness of the framework. The proposed scheme obtains +20.88%, +10.23%, and +10.39% improvement in rank-1 over image-to-images scheme on these datasets.
