| Zusammenfassung: | Most video-based person re-identification (re-id) methods only focus on appearance features but neglect motion features. In fact, motion features can help to distinguish the target persons that are hard to be identified only by appearance features. However, most existing temporal information modeling methods cannot extract motion features effectively or efficiently for v ideo-based re-id. In this paper, we propose a more efficient Motion Feature Aggregation (MFA) method to model and aggregate motion information in the feature map level for video-based re-id. The proposed MFA consists of (i) a coarse-grained motion learning module, which extracts coarse-grained motion features based on the position changes of body parts over time, and (ii) a fine-grained motion learning module, which extracts fine-grained motion features based on the appearance changes of body parts over time. These two modules can model motion information from different granularities and are complementary to each other. It is easy to combine the proposed method with existing network architectures for end-to-end training. Extensive experiments on four widely used datasets demonstrate that the motion features extracted by MFA are crucial complements to appearance features for video-based re-id, especially for the scenario with large appearance changes. Besides, the results on LS-VID, the current largest publicly available video-based re-id dataset, surpass the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin.
