In this paper we present an efficient implementation using triplet loss for face recognition. We conduct the practical experiment to analyze the factors that influence the training of triplet loss. All models are trained on CASIA-Webface dataset and tested on LFW. We analyze the experiment results and give some insights to help others balance the factors when they apply triplet loss to their own problem especially for face recognition task.

Person re-identification (re-ID) is a highly challenging task due to large variations of pose, viewpoint, illumination, and occlusion. Deep metric learning provides a satisfactory solution to person re-ID by training a deep network under supervision of metric loss, e.g., triplet loss. However, the performance of deep metric learning is greatly limited by traditional sampling methods. To solve this problem, we propose a Hard-Aware Point-to-Set (HAP2S) loss with a soft hard-mining scheme. Based on the point-to-set triplet loss framework, the HAP2S loss adaptively assigns greater weights to harder samples. Several advantageous properties are observed when compared with other state-of-the-art loss functions: (1) Accuracy: HAP2S loss consistently achieves higher re-ID accuracies than other alternatives on three large-scale benchmark datasets; (2) Robustness: HAP2S loss is more robust to outliers than other losses; (3) Flexibility: HAP2S loss does not rely on a specific weight function, i.e., different instantiations of HAP2S loss are equally effective. (4) Generality: In addition to person re-ID, we apply the proposed method to generic deep metric learning benchmarks including CUB-200-2011 and Cars196, and also achieve state-of-the-art results. Person re-identification (ReID) is an important task in wide area video surveillance which focuses on identifying people across different cameras. Recently, deep learning networks with a triplet loss become a common framework for person ReID. However, the triplet loss pays main attentions on obtaining correct orders on the training set. It still suffers from a weaker generalization capability from the training set to the testing set, thus resulting in inferior performance. In this paper, we design a quadruplet loss, which can lead to the model output with a larger inter-class variation and a smaller intra-class variation compared to the triplet loss. As a result, our model has a better generalization ability and can achieve a higher performance on the testing set. In particular, a quadruplet deep network using a margin-based online hard negative mining is proposed based on the quadruplet loss for the person ReID. In extensive experiments, the proposed network outperforms most of the state-of-the-art algorithms on representative datasets which clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of our proposed method.

Person re-identification (ReID) is an important task in computer vision. Recently, deep learning with a metric learning loss has become a common framework for ReID. In this paper, we also propose a new metric learning loss with hard sample mining called margin smaple mining loss (MSML) which can achieve better accuracy compared with other metric learning losses, such as triplet loss. In experi- ments, our proposed methods outperforms most of the state-of-the-art algorithms on Market1501, MARS, CUHK03 and CUHK-SYSU.
