Towards a practical use of Gaussian of Gaussian descriptor for person re-identification |
We make use of Gaussian of Gaussian (GOG) in practical by providing simultaneously two improvements.
First, we re-implement and perform intensive experiments to select the optimal values of the parameters using in GOG feature extraction.
Second, we propose and apply pre-processing techniques on person images.
The experimental results show that the proposed approach allows to extract GOG 2 times faster than the available source code and achieve remarkably high accuracy for person ReID.
The obtained accuracies at rank-1 on VIPeR dataset are 51.75% (with background) and 55.79% (without background).
