Open-Attribute Person Retrieval: Finding People Through Distinctive and Novel Attributes

Person retrieval in surveillance videos often depends on attributes described by witnesses or operators. However, the most useful cues in practice are not always common appearance descriptions (e.g., gender, clothing color), but rare and distinctive attributes that can sharply reduce the search space (e.g., holding a weapon, lying on the ground). Existing text-based person retrieval benchmarks and methods largely focus on identity-centric retrieval with common pedestrian descriptions, leaving such retrieval-critical attributes underexplored. In this paper, we introduce Open-Attribute Person Retrieval (OAPR), a practical retrieval setting that aims to retrieve all pedestrian instances matching a given attribute query, including rare or previously unseen visual concepts, regardless of identity. To support this task, we construct EPAD, an Expanded Pedestrian Attribute Dataset with 267,885 pedestrian images and a unified vocabulary of 65 attributes, including safety-critical actions, assistive devices, and object interactions that are rarely covered in prior benchmarks. We further propose GAP-CLIP, a lightweight CLIP-based framework that learns gated attribute-aware body-part representations for OAPR. Extensive experiments on EPAD demonstrate that GAP-CLIP achieves the strongest top-K retrieval performance on the full attribute space and on out-of-distribution attributes. The code and dataset are available at https://github.com/mlnjeongpark/Open-Attribute-Person-Retrieval.

LRSLAM: Low-rank Representation of Signed Distance Fields in Dense Visual SLAM System

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) has been crucial across various domains, including autonomous driving, mobile robotics, and mixed reality. Dense visual SLAM, leveraging RGB-D camera systems, offers advantages but faces challenges in achieving real-time performance, robustness, and scalability for large-scale scenes. Recent approaches utilizing neural implicit scene representations show promise but suffer from high computational costs and memory requirements. ESLAM introduced a plane-based tensor decomposition but still struggled with memory growth. Addressing these challenges, we propose a more efficient visual SLAM model, called LRSLAM, utilizing low-rank tensor decomposition methods. Our approach, leveraging the Six-axis and CP decompositions, achieves better convergence rates, memory efficiency, and reconstruction/localization quality than existing state-of-the-art approaches. Evaluation across diverse indoor RGB-D datasets demonstrates LRSLAM's superior performance in terms of parameter efficiency, processing time, and accuracy, retaining reconstruction and localization quality. Our code will be publicly available upon publication.

ViTA-PAR: Visual and Textual Attribute Alignment with Attribute Prompting for Pedestrian Attribute Recognition

The Pedestrian Attribute Recognition (PAR) task aims to identify various detailed attributes of an individual, such as clothing, accessories, and gender. To enhance PAR performance, a model must capture features ranging from coarse-grained global attributes (e.g., for identifying gender) to fine-grained local details (e.g., for recognizing accessories) that may appear in diverse regions. Recent research suggests that body part representation can enhance the model's robustness and accuracy, but these methods are often restricted to attribute classes within fixed horizontal regions, leading to degraded performance when attributes appear in varying or unexpected body locations. In this paper, we propose Visual and Textual Attribute Alignment with Attribute Prompting for Pedestrian Attribute Recognition, dubbed as ViTA-PAR, to enhance attribute recognition through specialized multimodal prompting and vision-language alignment. We introduce visual attribute prompts that capture global-to-local semantics, enabling diverse attribute representations. To enrich textual embeddings, we design a learnable prompt template, termed person and attribute context prompting, to learn person and attributes context. Finally, we align visual and textual attribute features for effective fusion. ViTA-PAR is validated on four PAR benchmarks, achieving competitive performance with efficient inference. We release our code and model at https://github.com/mlnjeongpark/ViTA-PAR.
