Person Re-Identification with RGB-D Camera in Top-View Configuration through Multiple Nearest Neighbor Classifiers and Neighborhood Component Features Selection.

Person re-identification is an important topic in retail, scene monitoring, human-computer interaction, people counting, ambient assisted living and many other application fields. A dataset for person re-identification TVPR (Top View Person Re-Identification) based on a number of significant features derived from both depth and color images has been previously built. This dataset uses an RGB-D camera in a top-view configuration to extract anthropometric features for the recognition of people in view of the camera, reducing the problem of occlusions while being privacy preserving.
