Novel pattern recognition-based methods for re-identification in biometric context

摘要

The object re-identification problem is to authenticate an object across multiple disjoint fields of view. Towards that end, once the object has been detected and initialized at one location, one seeks to match it with a feasible set of candidates detected at other locations and over time. Detection and seeding for process initialization do not presume known identity and that one allows for re-identification of objects and/or faces whose identity might remain unknown.
