MDA framework: multi-architecture domain adaptation for unsupervised person re-identification

원문 초록

Unsupervised person re-identification not only faces the challenge of domain gaps, but existing methods also rarely support multiple network architectures. To tackle both issues, this paper proposes a multi-architecture auto-adaptive domain adaptation method: Mamba augmented multi-architecture domain adaptation framework. Specifically, this paper constructs the multi-architecture domain adaptation capability at two levels. At the first level, we propose a composite operator(MDA operator) that encapsulates Mamba as a component for enhancing domain adaptation. At the second level, based on this operator, we propose a Mamba-enhanced multi-architecture Domain Adaptation framework(MDA framework). Comprehensive experiments on person re-identification benchmarks validate the consistency and flexibility of the proposed framework. The MDA framework supports versatile deployment strategies without being confined to a single integration point. Under a single deployment configuration, it surpasses several SOTA methods. Moreover, it demonstrates substantial performance improvements across both CNN and Transformer architectures. When embedded into a CNN backbone, the framework achieves a 10.2% mAP improvement on the adaptation task from CUHK03 to Market-1501. Integrated with a Transformer backbone, it yields a 19.8% mAP improvement on the same task.
