Abstract

This work proposes a novel person re-identification method based on Hierarchical Bipartite Graph Matching. Because human eyes observe person appearance roughly first and then goes further into the details gradually, our method abstracts person image from coarse to fine granularity, and finally into a three layer tree structure. Then, three bipartite graph matching methods are proposed for the matching of each layer between the trees. At the bottom layer Non-complete Bipartite Graph matching is proposed to collect matching pairs among small local regions. At the middle layer Semi-complete Bipartite Graph matching is used to deal with the problem of spatial misalignment between two person bodies. Complete Bipartite Graph matching is presented to refine the ranking result at the top layer. The effectiveness of our method is validated on the CAVIAR4REID and VIPeR datasets, and competitive results are achieved on both datasets.
