Abstract

We propose a ThermalGAN framework for cross-modality color-thermal person re-identification (ReID). We use a stack of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to translate a single color probe image to a multimodal thermal probe set. We use thermal histograms and feature descriptors as a thermal signature. We collected a large-scale multispectral ThermalWorld dataset for extensive training of our GAN model. In total the dataset includes 20,216 color-thermal image pairs, ...
