Abstract: A person re-identification method based on a perspective-guided multi-adversarial attention is provided. The deep convolutional neural network includes a feature learning module, a multi-adversarial module, and a perspective-guided attention mechanism module. The multi-adversarial module is followed by a global pooling layer and a perspective discriminator after each stage of a basic network of the feature learning module. The perspective-guided attention mechanism module is an attention map generator and the perspective discriminator. The training of the deep convolutional neural network includes learning of the feature learning module, learning of the multi-adversarial module, and learning of the perspective-guided attention mechanism module. The proposed method uses the trained deep convolutional neural network to extract features of the testing images, and using an Euclidean distance to perform feature matching on images in a query set and images in a gallery set.
