The paper investigates the conflict between image‑based (I2I) and text‑based (T2I) person re‑identification objectives when trained on a shared vision encoder. It shows that optimizing both simultaneously degrades performance because I2I contracts intra‑identity distances while T2I preserves them. A two‑stage pipeline—first training the encoder for I2I invariance and then freezing it while aligning the text encoder—improves T2I results, suggesting a path toward unified ReID systems.
The paper introduces PRAISE, a test‑time adaptation framework for vision‑language model based person re‑identification. PRAISE constructs an Attribute‑Conditioned Subspace (ACS) from a bank of attribute prompts, reshaping query‑gallery affinities without requiring identity or attribute labels. Experiments on image‑to‑image and text‑to‑image ReID benchmarks show that PRAISE consistently improves retrieval performance over existing backbones and TTA baselines.
Text-based person anomaly search requires a model to retrieve individuals from a large image gallery using natural-language descriptions of both appearance and behavior. This task is challenging becau...
arXiv:2607. 22068v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-branch architectures and CNN-Transformer fusion have long been regarded as effective ways to improve vehicle re-identification (Re-ID) by combining complementary representations.
The paper introduces a multi‑model retrieval and reranking system for text‑based person anomaly search that bridges the synthetic‑to‑real domain gap. It adapts the Qwen3‑VL‑Embedding‑8B model to synthetic descriptions via contrastive learning and domain randomization, fuses scores from six Qwen3‑VL checkpoints and a frozen SigLIP2 model, and then reranks candidates with a Qwen3‑VL‑Reranker‑8B cross‑encoder. A synthetic distractor‑matched validation protocol is used to tune hyper‑parameters, yielding a 94.78% mAP and 90.85% R@1 on the AI City Challenge 2026 Track 4 test set, placing eighth on the public leaderboard.

The paper proposes identity-conditioned score fusion for open-set person re-identification, a framework that assigns weights tailored to each gallery identity without requiring additional training. By comparing intra-identity consistency with cross-identity impostors, it derives identity-specific profiles that work with query-conditioned adaptation through a parameter-free rule, enhancing the separation between true and false matches while maintaining score calibration. Experiments on three clothes-changing benchmarks show consistent improvements over statistical, rank-based, and learned baselines, achieving up to an 8.8% absolute reduction in the false non-identification rate.
