Matching People across Camera Views using Kernel Canonical Correlation Analysis

Published: 04 November 2014 Publication History

Abstract

Matching people across views is still an open problem in computer vision and in video surveillance systems. In this paper we address the problem of person re-identification across disjoint cameras by proposing an efficient but robust kernel descriptor to encode the appearance of a person. The matching is then improved by applying a learning technique based on Kernel Canonical Correlation Analysis (KCCA) which finds a common subspace between the proposed descriptors extracted from disjoint cameras, projecting them into a new description space. This common description space is then used to identify a person from one camera to another with a standard nearest-neighbor voting method. We evaluate our approach on two publicly available datasets for re-identification (VIPeR and PRID), demonstrating that our method yields state-of-the-art performance with respect to recent techniques proposed for the re-identification task.
