Abstract
In various implementations, object tracking in a video content analysis system can be augmented with an image-based object re-identification system (e.g., for person re-identification or re-identification of other objects) to improve object tracking results for objects moving in a scene. The object re-identification system can use image recognition principles, which can be enhanced by considering data provided by object trackers that can be output by an object traffic system. In a testing stage, the object re-identification system can selectively test object trackers against object models. For most input video frames, not all object trackers need be tested against all object models. Additionally, different types of object trackers can be tested differently, so that a context provided by each object tracker can be considered. In a training stage, object models can also be selectively updated.
