通过优化数据与监督信号,提升有限数据下的步态识别泛化能力
Improving the generalization of gait recognition with limited datasets
- 筛选高质量步态序列,去除冗余和不稳定的样本
- 分域构建三元组,避免跨域梯度干扰,保持身份特征一致
- 无需改网络或标注,适合跨域步态识别研究者
由于视角、外观和环境的显著域偏移,泛化步态识别仍具挑战。混合数据集训练虽能提升跨域鲁棒性,但带来两个问题:1)不同数据集间的监督冲突干扰身份学习;2)冗余或噪声样本降低数据效率并强化数据集特有模式。为此,本文提出统一的跨数据集步态学习范式,同步提升运动信号质量与监督一致性。首先,基于表示冗余和预测不确定性,抑制包含冗余步态周期或不稳定轮廓的序列,提高训练数据可靠性,使学习聚焦于有效步态动态。同时,通过在各源数据集内解耦度量学习,构建内部三元组,防止破坏性跨域梯度传播,保留可迁移的身份线索。两项机制协同作用,稳定优化过程,增强泛化性能,且无需修改网络结构或额外标注。在CASIA-B、OU-MVLP、Gait3D和GREW上,使用GaitBase和DeepGaitV2骨干网络的实验均显示跨域性能提升,且不损失域内准确率。结果表明,数据筛选与监督对齐可有效实现可扩展的混合数据集步态学习。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Generalized gait recognition remains challenging due to significant domain shifts in viewpoints, appearances, and environments. Mixed-dataset training has recently become a practical route to improve cross-domain robustness, but it introduces underexplored issues: 1) inter-dataset supervision conflicts, which distract identity learning, and 2) redundant or noisy samples, which reduce data efficiency and may reinforce dataset-specific patterns. To address these challenges, we introduce a unified paradigm for cross-dataset gait learning that simultaneously improves motion-signal quality and supervision consistency. We first increase the reliability of training data by suppressing sequences dominated by redundant gait cycles or unstable silhouettes, guided by representation redundancy and prediction uncertainty. This refinement concentrates learning on informative gait dynamics when mixing heterogeneous datasets. In parallel, we stabilize supervision by disentangling metric learning across datasets, forming triplets within each source to prevent destructive cross-domain gradients while preserving transferable identity cues. These components act in synergy to stabilize optimization and strengthen generalization without modifying network architectures or requiring extra annotations. Experiments on CASIA-B, OU-MVLP, Gait3D, and GREW with both GaitBase and DeepGaitV2 backbones consistently show improved cross-domain performance without sacrificing in-domain accuracy. These results demonstrate that data selection and aligning supervision effectively enables scalable mixed-dataset gait learning.
