Abstract

In order to eliminate the complex background of pedestrian images in the re-identification task, this paper introduces grab-cut and co-segmentation algorithms to eliminate the complex background for the different pedestrian datasets. Specifically, we use grab-cut to handle small person dataset. For the bigger dataset, the designed co-segmentation algorithm which based on HSV color space is applied. Experimental results show that the proposed methods have a good effect.
