Depth-based object re-identification

Abstract:

An object re-identifier. For each of a plurality of frames of a video, a quality of the frame is assessed and a confidence that a previously-recognized object is present in the frame is determined. The determined confidence for the frame is weighted based on the assessed quality of the frame such that frames with higher relative quality are weighted more heavily than frames with lower relative quality. An overall confidence that the previously-recognized object is present in the video is assessed based on the weighted determined confidences.
