Paper:
Person re-identification (re-ID) aims at identifying the same persons' images across different cameras. However, domain diversities between different datasets pose an evident challenge for adapting the re-ID model trained on one dataset to another one. State-of-the-art unsupervised domain adaptation methods for person re-ID transferred the learned knowledge from the source domain by optimizing with pseudo labels created by clustering algorithms on the target domain. Although they achieved state-of-the-art performances, the inevitable label noise caused by the clustering procedure was ignored. Such noisy pseudo labels substantially hinders the model's capability on further improving feature representations on the target domain. In order to mitigate the effects of noisy pseudo labels, we propose to softly refine the pseudo labels in the target domain by proposing an unsupervised framework, Mutual Mean-Teaching (MMT), to learn better features from the target domain via off-line refined hard pseudo labels and on-line refined soft pseudo labels in an alternative training manner. In addition, the common practice is to adopt both the classification loss and the triplet loss jointly for achieving optimal performances in person re-ID models. However, conventional triplet loss cannot work with softly refined labels. To solve this problem, a novel soft softmax-triplet loss is proposed to support learning with soft pseudo triplet labels for achieving the optimal domain adaptation performance. The proposed MMT framework achieves considerable improvements of 14.4%, 18.2%, 13.4% and 16.4% mAP on Market-to-Duke, Duke-to-Market, Market-to-MSMT and Duke-to-MSMT unsupervised domain adaptation tasks.

=================
The paper proposes an unsupervised framework to address the problem of noisy pseudo labels in clustering-based unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) for person re-identification. The noise derives from the limited transferability of source-domain features, the unknown number of target-domain identities, and the imperfect results of the clustering algorithm. 
The proposed framework, Mutual Mean-Teaching (MMT), performs pseudo label reﬁnery by optimizing the neural networks under the joint supervisions of off-line reﬁned hard pseudo labels and on-line reﬁned soft pseudo labels. Inspired by the teacher-student approaches (Reference: Tarvainen & Valpola, 2017; Reference: Zhang et al., 2018b), the proposed MMT framework provides robust soft pseudo labels in an on-line peer-teaching manner to simultaneously train two same networks. The networks gradually capture target-domain data distributions and thus reﬁne pseudo labels for better feature learning.
The main contribution is proposing an unsupervised framework (MMT) capable of tackling the noise problem in state-of-art UDA methods for person re-identification, via producing reliable soft labels in order to achieve better performance. Since the conventional triplet loss cannot properly work with soft labels, a softmax-triplet loss is proposed to enable training with soft triplet labels for mitigating the pseudo label noise.
The proposed MMT is evaluated on Market1501, DukeMTMC-reID, and MSMT17 datasets with four adaptation tasks: Market-to-Duke, Duke-to-Market, Market-to-MSMT, and Duke-to-MSMT. It outperforms the state-of-the-art methods with significant improvements in terms of Mean average precision (mAP) and Cumulative matching characteristic (CMC). In addition to that, ablation studies conducted to evaluate each component in the proposed MMT framework.
