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.
