A Generative AI Integrated Multimodal Framework for Low-Latency Multi-Camera Person Re-Identification

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.14419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Person re-identification (ReID) is essential for multi-camera surveillance and tracking, yet remains difficult due to viewpoint and illumination changes, occlusion, background clutter, and low resolution imagery. We propose a generative AI integrated multimodal ReID framework designed explicitly for robustness under missing cues and low latency deployment. The key idea is a cost aware early-exit cascade that prioritizes inexpensive, high confidence evidence and only triggers expensive modalities for ambiguous cases. Our system integrates (i) global visual embeddings from segmented person regions, (ii) automatically generated fine grained semantic attribute descriptions generated by vision-language models (VLMs), and (iii) optional facial em
