Abstract

A series of unsupervised video-based re-identification (re-ID) methods have been proposed to solve the problem of high labor cost required to annotate re-ID datasets. But their performance is still far lower than the supervised counterparts. In the mean time, clean datasets without noise are used in these methods, which is not realistic. In this paper, we propose to tackle this problem by learning re-ID models from automatically generated person tracklets by multiple objects tracking (MOT) algorithm. To this end, we design a tracklet-based multi-level clustering (TMC) framework to effectively learn the re-ID model from the noisy person tracklets. First, intra-tracklet isolation to reduce ID switch noise within tracklets; second, alternates between using inter-tracklet association to eliminate ID fragmentation noise and network training using the pseudo label. Extensive experiments on MARS with various manually generated noises show the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Specifically, the proposed framework achieved mAP 53.4% and rank-1 63.7% on the simulated tracklets with strongest noise, even outperforming the best existing method on clean tracklets. Based on the results, we believe that building re-ID models from automatically generated noisy tracklets is a reasonable approach and will also be an important way to make re-ID models feasible in real-world applications.
