This paper presents a solution of the appearance-based people reidentification problem in a surveillance system including multiple cameras with different fields of vision. We first utilize different color-based features, combined with several illuminant invariant normalizations in order to characterize the silhouettes in static frames. A graph-based approach which is capable of learning the global structure of the manifold and preserving the properties of the original data in a lower dimensional representation is then introduced to reduce the effective working space and to realize the comparison of the video sequences. The global system was tested on a real data set collected by two cameras installed on board a train. The experimental results show that the combination of color-based features, invariant normalization procedures and the graph-based approach leads to very satisfactory results.
Different color-based features combined with a graph based approach was proposed in REF .
