Temporal Prototyping and Hierarchical Alignment for Unsupervised Video-based Visible-Infrared Person Re-Identification

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2604.21324v1 Announce Type: new Visible-infrared person re-identification (VI-ReID) enables cross-modality identity matching for all-day surveillance, yet existing methods predominantly focus on the image level or rely heavily on costly identity annotations. While video-based VI-ReID has recently emerged to exploit temporal dynamics for improved robustness, existing studies remain limited to supervised settings.
