Introduction:

This MATLAB code in this webpage provides the implementation of sparse re-weighted person re-identification from our paper

G. Lisanti, I. Masi, A. D. Bagdanov, A. Del Bimbo, “Person Re-identification by Iterative Re-weighted Sparse Ranking.” IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, August 2015.

This code implements *ONLY* the re-identification algorithm from this paper and not feature extraction. In the ‘data/’ directory we provide pre-computed features for several re-identification datasets.

You will need a recent version of MATLAB and the SPAMS Sparse Modeling and Optimization package (http://spams-devel.gforge.inria.fr/) to use this code. In the ‘spams-matlab/’ directory we provide a copy of version 2.3 of the SPAMS Sparse Modeling toolkit.

We already provide a compiled version of SPAMS; in particular we provide the following MEX binary of SPAMS for:

  • Linux 64 bit arch (tested on Ubuntu 12.04)
  • Mac OS X 64 bit arch (tested on Lion and Mountain Lion)
  • WinXP 64 bit arch (tested on Windows 7 and Windows XP64)

If there are any problems, please follow the directions in the ‘spams-matlab/’ directory for compiling and installing SPAMS. All experiments from the paper above were run on an 8 core machine, and it is suggested that you start MATLAB according to the directions in the SPAMS directory so as to take full advantage of all available cores.

With this code you can reproduce the results from the above paper on:

  • The VIPeR dataset (SvsS modality)
  • The CAVIAR4REID dataset (SvsS, MvsM (N=5) modalities

Organization of the demo distribution:

The structure of the code is the following:

  • In the root are all files implementing our re-identification algorithm.
  • In the ‘figure/’ folder are the reference figures used in our paper.
  • In the ‘data/’ folder are .mat files used for precomputed features.
  • In the ‘spams-matlab/’ folder is SPAMS version 2.3 source and binary code.

Running the demo:

To run the code on one of the pre-computed datasets, start MATLAB and ensure that a working version of SPAMS is in your MATLAB path. Then go to the root of our distribution and run:

>> L1_PeopleReid_Demo

You can change the dataset and tested modality at the top of the

‘L1_PeopleReid_Demo.m’ file.

Troubleshooting:

If you get an ‘invalid MEX’ error and you are on a *NIX platform like Linux or Mac OS X, please consider starting MATLAB with the ‘run_matlab.sh’ script found in the SPAMS directory.
