Idea: Torch re-id with thermal images ? #492

Hi !. I am wondering if there is a possibility of performing re-id of persons using thermal camera images ?

Understand that there will be difficulty. Because the heat signature of a person is very very similar to each other. For example, a person will be a red/yellow figure against a blue background. Same as another person. Thus it is difficult to find unique features of each person/figure.
