Multiple cameras can better track a person’s identity using geometry and appearance

By combining two complementary clues—camera geometry and visual appearance—researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, developed a new approach for preserving identities across multiple cameras. The method uses epipolar geometry to identify spatially consistent candidate matches and appearance similarity to distinguish among possible identities. The approach can be integrated with existing single-camera tracking systems without requiring environment-specific retraining.
