Abstract
Clustering-based approach has proved effective in dealing with unsupervised domain adaptive person re-identification (ReID) tasks. However, existing works along this approach still suffer from noisy pseudo labels and the unreliable generalization ability during the whole training process. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a new approach to learn the feature representation with better generalization ability through limiting noisy pseudo labels. At first, we propose a Sample Dropout (SD) method to prevent the training of the model from falling into the vicious circle caused by samples that are frequently assigned with noisy pseudo labels. In addition, we put forward a brand-new method referred as to Feature Diversity Learning (FDL) under the classic mutual-teaching architecture, which can significantly improve the generalization ability of the feature representation on the target domain. Experimental results show that our proposed FDL-SD achieves the state-of-the-art performance on multiple benchmark datasets.
