Luggage re-identification: A study of strategies towards a real-world application

The paper investigates strategies for luggage re-identification (ReID) in real-world video surveillance settings, such as airports and border crossings. It focuses on an end-to-end pipeline that processes multiple video streams to detect and re-identify luggage, addressing challenges like occlusions, cluttered backgrounds, and crowded scenes. The study evaluates different approaches for selecting and merging multiple views and shots of the same luggage, as well as training on varied environment datasets, to improve overall ReID performance in practical applications.

TransitReID: Transit OD Data Collection with Occlusion-Resistant Dynamic Passenger Re-Identification

arXiv:2504. 11500v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transit Origin-Destination (OD) data are fundamental for optimizing public transit services, yet current collection methods, such as manual surveys, Bluetooth/WiFi tracking, and Automated Passenger Counters, are often costly, device-dependent, or unable to support individual-level matching.

Template-Search Domain Adaptation via Multi-Stage Feature Alignment for Cross-Modal Object Tracking

The paper introduces TSDA-Track, a Template-Search Domain Adaptation framework designed to reduce modality gaps in cross‑modal visual object tracking. Two variants are explored: Pre‑AFA TSDA‑Track uses adversarial alignment before transformer interaction, while Enc‑CFA TSDA‑Track applies contrastive alignment after interaction to strengthen cross‑modal correspondence. Experiments on datasets such as LasHeR, RGBT234, GTOT, and Anti‑UAV‑024 show that both variants outperform state‑of‑the‑art trackers, with Pre‑AFA achieving an SR/PR of 43.2/56.0 on RGBT234 under the modality‑switch protocol.
