Abstract

En 中文
The pedestrian attribute recognition aims to generate a structured description of pedestrians, which serves an important role in surveillance. Current works usually assume that the images and the specific pedestrian states, including pedestrian occlusion and pedestrian orientation, are given. However, we argue that the current works ignore the guidance of the pedestrian state and cannot achieve the appropriate performance since the appearance feature will become unreliable due to the variance of the pedestrian state, which is common in practice. Therefore, this paper proposes the Explicit State Representation (ExSR) Guided Pedestrian Attribute Recognition to improve the accuracy through state learning and attribute fusion among frames. Firstly, the pedestrian state is explicitly represented by concatenating the pedestrian orientation and occlusion, which can be accurately determined via analyzing the pose. Secondly, the state-aware pedestrian attribute fusion method is proposed and divided into two cases, namely the inter-state case and the intra-state case. In the intra-state case, the appearance feature will remain stable and the attribute relations are propagated to refine. The method of exploiting attribute relations within a single frame is the Graph Neural Network. In the inter-state case, the state changes, the attribute relationship propagation is prevented, and the advantages of attribute recognition in each frame are complemented to make a reliable judgment on the invisible region. The experimental results demonstrate that the ExSR outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on two public databases, benefiting from the explicit introduction of the state into the attribute recognition.
