The invention relates to an original monitoring video-oriented unsupervised
pedestrian search method, which comprises the following steps of: detecting a
pedestrian area in an original monitoring video by adopting a pre-trained neural network, and generating
pedestrian features by adopting a feature
encoder; in an original monitoring video, based on visual similarity and context similarity of pedestrians, searching for a first
neighbor relation of pedestrian features and organizing a
chain structure of the pedestrian features, determining
spatial distribution of the pedestrian features, realizing
unsupervised clustering according to segmented regions, and generating identity categories and pseudo labels of the pedestrians; in a
forward propagation process, respectively calculating a contrast
loss function of each
branch from three branches of category distinguishing learning, single-camera contrast learning and multi-camera contrast learning, and respectively updating a clustering center
memory bank and a multi-camera
memory bank according to a
momentum updating mechanism; and performing joint optimization on the contrast loss functions of the three branches, minimizing a total loss value through multiple iterations in a back propagation process, and optimizing parameters of the feature
encoder.
