Abstract:
An approach for re-identifying an object in a test image is presented. Similarity measures between the test image and training images captured by a first camera are determined. The similarity measures are based on Bhattacharyya distances between feature representations of an estimated background region of the test image and feature representations of background regions of the training images. A transformed test image based on the Bhattacharyya distances has a brightness that is different from the test image's brightness and matches a brightness of training images captured by a second camera. An appearance of the transformed test image resembles an appearance of a capture of the test image by the second camera. Another image included in test images captured by the second camera is identified as being closest in appearance to the transformed test image and another object in the identified other image is a re-identification of the object.

Claim (Index 10):
The computer system of  claim 8 , wherein the ninth program instructions to determine the measures of similarity between the first feature representations and each of the second feature representations include tenth program instructions to determine measures of similarity between a first proper subset of first histograms and a second proper subset of second histograms,\n the first proper subset of first histograms including a proper subset of histograms of RGB, HSV and YCbCr color features and a HOG describing texture features included in the first background region, and the second proper subset of second histograms including a proper subset of histograms of RGB, HSV and YCbCr color features and a HOG describing texture features included in a second background region of a training image captured by the first camera, wherein the tenth program instructions are stored on the computer-readable, tangible storage device for execution by the CPU via the computer-readable memory.
