Equidistance constrained metric learning for person re-identification

作者:

Highlights:

• An equidistance constrained metric learning algorithm for person re-identification is proposed.

• In our method, points of the same class are collapsed into a single point, while points of different classes are mapped to different vertices of a regular simplex.

• Our method aims to guarantee the best separability of the training data, meanwhile, promote the generalization ability of the learned metric.
