摘要

Person re-identification (Re-ID) plays a vital role in smart security and video surveillance systems. However, it remains a challenging task due to factors such as occlusion, visual similarity among individuals, and cluttered backgrounds. Existing networks often extract relatively simple features, which limits their ability to distinguish pedestrians in complex environments due to insufficient discriminative power. To address these challenges, we propose an efficient Feature Association Attention Network (FAA-Net) that integrates both local and global features. Specifically, we design a local-global feature association (LGFA) attention mechanism, which combines spatial and channel domain attention in a complementary manner to enhance the extraction of discriminative features. By effectively associating local details with global context, FAA-Net captures key visual cues and transforms them into more distinctive feature representations. Extensive experiments are conducted on four standard benchmark datasets: Market-1501, DukeMTMC-ReID, CUHK-03, and MSMT17. The results demonstrate that FAA-Net consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, especially in challenging Re-ID scenarios. In addition, comprehensive ablation studies validate the effectiveness of each component in our proposed architecture.
