The invention discloses a
pedestrian re-identifying method based on coordination scale learning and belongs to the technical field of monitoring
video retrieval. First, according to color and texture features of images in a marked training sample set L, scale learning is carried out, and
covariance matrixes Mc and Mt in corresponding
Mahalanobis distance are obtained; and checking targets are selected randomly, the Mc and the Mt are used for
Mahalanobis distance measuring, a corresponding sorting result is obtained, positive samples and negative samples are obtained, a new marked training sample set L is obtained, the Mc and the Mt are updated until an unmarked training sample set U is empty, a final marked sample set L* is obtained, the color and texture features are fused, an Mf is obtained, and a
Mahalanobis distance function based on the Mf can be used for
pedestrian re-identifying. Under a semi-supervised framework, the
pedestrian re-identifying technology based on scale learning is studied, scale learning is carried out with the marked samples assisted by the unmarked samples, the requirement that practical video investigation application marked training samples are hard to obtain is met, and re-identifying performance under few marked samples can be effectively improved.
