Multi-view multi-human association and tracking (MvMHAT), is an emerging yet important problem for multi-person scene video surveillance, aiming to track a group of people over time in each view, as well as to identify the same person across different views at the same time, which is different from previous MOT and multi-camera MOT tasks only considering the over-time human tracking. This way, the videos for MvMHAT require more complex annotations while containing more information for self-learning. In this work, we tackle this problem with an end-to-end neural network in a self-supervised learning manner. Specifically, we propose to take advantage of the spatial-temporal self-consistency rationale by considering three properties of reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity. Besides the reflexivity property that naturally holds, we design the self-supervised learning losses based on the properties of symmetry and transitivity, for both appearance feature learning and assignment matrix optimization, to associate multiple humans over time and across views. Furthermore, to promote the research on MvMHAT, we build two new large-scale benchmarks for the network training and testing of different algorithms. Extensive experiments on the proposed benchmarks verify the effectiveness of our method. We have released the benchmark and code to the public.
