MULTI BRANCH SIAMESE NETWORK FOR PERSON RE-IDENTIFICATION

To capture robust person features, learning discriminative, style and view invariant descriptors is a key challenge in person Re-Identification (re-id). Most deep Re-ID models learn single scale feature representation which are unable to grasp compact and style invariant representations. In this paper, we present a multi branch Siamese Deep Neural Network with multiple classifiers to overcome the above issues. The multi-branch learning of the network creates a stronger descriptor with fine-grained information from global features of a person. Camera to camera image translation is performed with generative adversarial network to generate diverse data and add style invariance in learned features. Experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method performs better than other state of the arts methods.
