Negative Propagation over Graph
Post-Rank Optimsation by Negative Mining

Problem: • Visual ambigui.es and dispari.es • Off-‐line learning scalability (minimising user feedback clicks)
Contribu.ons: • Formulate a systema.c framework for fast re-‐iden.fica.on post-‐rank op.misa.on, with significant
increase in recogni.on accuracy (over 30% increase for rank-‐1 recogni4on rate on VIPeR dataset). • Minimise human-‐in-‐the-‐loop effort by one-‐shot nega.ve feedback selec.on (weak/strong nega.ve). • Formulate a new visual expansion model for overcoming insufficient training samples. • Incremental affinity graph construc.on for exploi.ng large quan..es of unlabelled data.

Nega.ve selec.on : A user selects one (any) strong nega.ve from the top N ranked instances, denoted as .
Cross-Camera View Visual Expansion 3
Mo.va.on:
• A single strong nega.ve selected by user is insufficient for learning a post-‐rank func.on. • Due to large feature inconsistency between different camera views, a probe image from the probe
camera view cannot be readily used as posi.ve sample in the gallery view.
p Step 1 : Learning an appearance mapping space:
p Step 2 : Genera.ng synthesised probe instance:
Method: Regression forest

The visual varia4ons between a probe and a gallery camera view are accounted by mul4-‐output regression forest.
• is the regression predictor for the t-‐th regression tree. • The subscript is a randomly sampled index.
This process can be repeated to generate more synthesised probe instances if desired.

Mo.va.on: Propagate the sparse labelled samples to the large quan.ty of unlabelled set.
Method: a) Clustering forest for graph construc.on
• Its implicit feature selec.on mechanism is beneficial to mi.ga.ng noisy visual features. • It offers scalable and tractable solu.on to our incremental graph construc.on requirement so to accommodate varying number of selected nega.ves accumula.ng on-‐the-‐fly.
b) Incremental construc.on
p Step 1: construct a graph for the gallery instances . p Step 2: include synthesised posi.ves in the construc.on of the affinity graph.
