Deep-Association-Learning

Tensorflow Implementation of the paper Chen et al. Deep Association Learning for Unsupervised Video Person Re-identification. BMVC2018. You may refer to our poster for a quick overview.

Getting Started

Prerequisites:

Datasets: PRID2011 [3], iLIDS-VIDS [4], MARS [5].
Python 2.7.
Tensorflow version >= 1.4.0. (For model training)
Matlab. (For model evaluation)

Data preparation:

Download ImageNet pretrained models: mobilenet_v1 [1], resnet_v1_50 [2].
Convert image data to tfrecords. (Need to supply your paths in the following .sh file. Check the TODO comments in the .sh file.)

bash scripts/tf_convert_data.sh

Running Experiments

Training:

Train models and extract features. (Need to supply your paths in the following .sh file. Check the TODO comments in the .sh file.)

Model implementation include the following .py files:

train_dal.py: build and run the training graph.
association.py: build the anchor learning graph and compute the association losses.
network.py: define the network.
utils.py: data preparation.

For example, to train the DAL model using mobilenet_v1 on MARS, run the the following scripts.

bash scripts/train_MARS.sh

Note that you may modify the type of deep model by changing the flag --model_name (eg. --model_name=resnet_v1_50). You can also modify the number of gpus by changing the flag --num_gpus. (eg. --num_gpus=2).

Testing:

Test model performance in matlab. Evaluation codes are placed under the directory evaluation.

For examples, to test the DAL model performance trained on MARS in matlab, run the following command.

clear; model_name = 'mobilenet_b64_dal'; CMC_mAP_MARS
