Dog nose print matching with dual global descriptor based on Contrastive Learning
Recent studies in biometric-based identification tasks have shown that deep learning methods can achieve better performance. These methods generally extract the global features as descriptor to represent the original image. Nonetheless, it does not perform well for biometric identification under fine-grained tasks. The main reason is that the single image descriptor contains insufficient information to represent image. In this paper, we present a dual global descriptor model, which combines multiple global descriptors to exploit multi level image features. Moreover, we utilize a contrastive loss to enlarge the distance between image representations of confusing classes. The proposed framework achieves the top2 on the CVPR2022 Biometrics Workshop Pet Biometric Challenge.
