Person Re-Identification Using Additive Distance Constraint With Similar Labels Loss

Despite the promising progress made in recent years, person re-identification (Re-ID) remains a challenging task due to the intra-class variations. Most of the current studies used the traditional Softmax loss for solutions, but its discriminative capability encounters a bottleneck. Therefore, how t...

description Despite the promising progress made in recent years, person re-identification (Re-ID) remains a challenging task due to the intra-class variations. Most of the current studies used the traditional Softmax loss for solutions, but its discriminative capability encounters a bottleneck. Therefore, how to improve person Re-ID performance is still a challenging task. To address this problem, we proposed a novel loss function, namely additive distance constraint with similar labels loss (ADCSLL). Specifically, we reformulated the Softmax loss by adding a distance constraint to the ground truth label, based on which similar labels were introduced to enhance the learned features to be much more stable and centralized. Experimental evaluations were conducted on two popular datasets (Market-1501 and DukeMTMC-reID) to examine the effectiveness of our proposed method. The results showed that our proposed ADCSLL was more discriminative than most of the other compared state-of-the-art methods. The rank-1 accuracy and the mAP on Market-1501 were 95.0% and 87.0%, respectively. The numbers were 88.6% and 77.2% on DukeMTMC-reID, respectively.
