Venue:  Teaching building-206

Abstract: As a research topic attracting more and more interests in both academia and industry, person Re-Identification (ReID) targets to identify the re-appearing persons from a large set of videos. It is potential to open great opportunities to address the challenging data storage problems, offering an unprecedented possibility for intelligent video processing and analysis, as well as exploring the promising applications on public security like cross camera pedestrian searching, tracking, and event detection.

This talk aims at reviewing the latest research advances, discussing the remaining challenges in person ReID, and providing a communication platform for researchers working on or interested in this topic. This talk includes several parts on person ReID:

Ÿ   Wide deep models for fine-grained pattern recognition

Ÿ   Local and global representation learning for person ReID

Ÿ   The application of Generative Adversarial Networks in person ReID

Ÿ   Open issues and promising research topics of person ReID

This talk also covers our latest work on person ReID, as well as our viewpoints about the unsolved challenging issues in person ReID. We believe this talk would be helpful for researchers working on person ReID and other related topics.
