A Structured Graph Attention Network for Vehicle Re-Identification

Authors Info & Claims
Published:12 October 2020Publication History

ABSTRACT

Vehicle re-identification aims to identify the same vehicle across different surveillance cameras and plays an important role in public security. Existing approaches mainly focus on exploring informative regions or learning an appropriate distance metric. However, they not only neglect the inherent structured relationship between discriminative regions within an image, but also ignore the extrinsic structured relationship among images. The inherent and extrinsic structured relationships are crucial to learning effective vehicle representation. In this paper, we propose a Structured Graph ATtention network (SGAT) to fully exploit these relationships and allow the message propagation to update the features of graph nodes. SGAT creates two graphs for one probe image. One is an inherent structured graph based on the geometric relationship between the landmarks that can use features of their neighbors to enhance themselves. The other is an extrinsic structured graph guided by the attribute similarity to update image representations. Experimental results on two public vehicle re-identification datasets including VeRi-776 and VehicleID have shown that our proposed method achieves significant improvements over the state-of-the-art methods.
