Brief Review -- ECA-Net: Efficient Channel Attention for Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
ECA-Net clearly outperforms SENet, and also outperforms fixed kernel version of ECA-Net. ECA-Net is superior to SENet and CBAM while it is very competitive to AA-Net with lower model complexity. Note that AA-Net is trained with Inception data augmentation and different setting of learning rates. ECA-Net performs favorably against state-of-the-art CNNs while benefiting much lower model complexity. Different frameworks are used, ECA-Net can well generalize to object detection task.
Unsupervised domain-adaptive person re-identification with multi-camera constraints
Takeuchi, S., Li, F., Iwasaki, S., Ning, J., Suzuki, G.
Person re-identification is a key technology for analyzing video-based human behavior; however, its application is still challenging in practical situations due to the performance degradation for domains different from those in the training data. Here, we propose an environment-constrained adaptive network for reducing the domain gap. This network refines pseudo-labels estimated via a self-training scheme by imposing multi-camera constraints. The proposed method incorporates person-pair information without person identity labels obtained from the environment into the model training. In addition, we develop a method that appropriately selects a person from the pair that contributes to the performance improvement. We evaluate the performance of the network using public and private datasets and confirm the performance surpasses state-of-the-art methods in domains with overlapping camera views. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study on domain-adaptive learning with multi-camera constraints that can be obtained in real environments.
