Unsupervised Re Id

Unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) focuses on identifying individuals across different camera views without using labeled training data, aiming to improve efficiency and scalability in applications like video surveillance. Current research emphasizes developing robust clustering algorithms to generate pseudo-labels, often incorporating techniques like contrastive learning and memory-based approaches to refine these labels and improve feature representation. Transformer networks are also emerging as a powerful architecture for this task, alongside methods that leverage auxiliary information (e.g., camera location, temporal data) to enhance performance. Advances in unsupervised Re-ID have significant implications for real-world applications by reducing the reliance on expensive and time-consuming manual annotation.
