# deep-person-reid
This repo contains [pytorch](http://pytorch.org/) implementations of deep person re-identification approaches.

We will actively maintain this repo.

## Pretrained models
## Prepare data
Create a directory to store reid datasets under this repo via `mkdir data/`.

Market1501 [7]:
1. download dataset to `data/` from http://www.liangzheng.org/Project/project_reid.html.
2. extract dataset and rename to `market1501`.

MARS [8]:
1. create a directory named `mars/` under `data/`.
2. download dataset to `data/mars/` from http://www.liangzheng.com.cn/Project/project_mars.html.
3. extract `bbox_train.zip` and `bbox_test.zip`.
4. download split information from https://github.com/liangzheng06/MARS-evaluation/tree/master/info and put `info/` in `data/mars`. (we want to follow the standard split in [8])
## Train
## Test
## Results
### Setup
* Image size: 256-by-128 <br />
* Optimizer: Adam [6] <br />
* Loss functions: <br />
xent: cross entropy + label smoothing regularizer [5] <br />
htri: triplet loss with hard positive/negative mining [4] <br />
