Vehicle re-identification method based on feature enhancement

Abstract

The invention discloses a vehicle re-identification method based on feature enhancement, and the method comprises the steps: constructing a feature enhancement network based on multi-attention guidance, wherein the feature enhancement network is provided with a self-adaptive feature erasing module with space attention guidance and a multi-receptive field residual attention module; helping a backbone network to obtain rich vehicle appearance features under receptive fields of different sizes through multi-receptive-field residual attention, and utilizing a self-adaptive feature erasing module guided by space attention to selectively erase the most significant features of a vehicle, so the local branches of the multi-attention-guided feature enhancement network can mine potential local features, and the global features of the global branches and the potential local features of the erasure branches are fused to complete the vehicle re-identification process. The method of the invention not only can overcome the problem of local significant information loss caused by complex environmental changes, such as violent illumination changes and barrier shielding, but also can meet the requirements of efficiently and quickly searching the target vehicle in safety supervision and intelligent traffic systems.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of recording carrier processing for identifying graphics, in particular to a vehicle re-identification method based on feature enhancement, more preferably a vehicle re-identification method combining feature enhancement and knowledge distillation. Background technique: [0002] Vehicle re-identification can be viewed as an instance-level object search task. Different from the traditional vehicle detection problem, the vehicle re-identification problem refers to the retrieval problem of judging whether vehicle images captured in non-overlapping areas belong to the same vehicle in a traffic monitoring scene within a specific range. At present, surveillance cameras are installed in areas with developed traffic both at home and abroad. How to make better use of surveillance cameras for traffic supervision and criminal investigation and build a safe and complete intelligent surveillance system is a very...
