arXiv:2606. 02242v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The joint optimization of image-based (I2I) and text-based (T2I) person re-identification (ReID) is hindered by modality discrepancies and conflicting training objectives, leading to suboptimal shared representations.

The joint optimization of image-based (I2I) and text-based (T2I) person re-identification (ReID) is hindered by modality discrepancies and conflicting training objectives, leading to suboptimal shared representations. While I2I ReID focuses on identity-level invariance across images of the same person, T2I ReID is driven by instance-specific textual descriptions tied to unique visual traits.

ReText is a method that enhances image-based person re-identification by incorporating textual descriptions into training. The authors augment existing multi-camera datasets with captions generated by a fine‑tuned Vision‑Language Model and train the system on three tasks: Re-ID, image‑text matching, and image reconstruction guided by text. Experiments show that ReText improves generalization across unseen domains and outperforms current state‑of‑the‑art approaches on cross‑domain Re‑ID benchmarks.
