With the recent burst of 2D and 3D data, cross-modal retrieval has attracted increasing attention recently. However, manual labeling by non-experts will inevitably introduce corrupted annotations given ambiguous 2D/3D content. Though previous works have addressed this issue by designing a naive division strategy with hand-crafted thresholds, their performance generally exhibits great sensitivity to the threshold value. Besides, they fail to fully utilize the valuable supervisory signals within each divided subset. To tackle this problem, we propose a Divide-and-conquer 2D-3D cross-modal Alignment and Correction framework (DAC), which comprises Multimodal Dynamic Division (MDD) and Adaptive Alignment and Correction (AAC). Specifically, the former performs accurate sample division by adaptive credibility modeling for each sample based on the compensation information within multimodal loss distribution. Then in AAC, samples in distinct subsets are exploited with different alignment strategies to fully enhance the semantic compactness and meanwhile alleviate over-fitting to noisy labels, where a self-correction strategy is introduced to improve the quality of representation. Moreover. To evaluate the effectiveness in real-world scenarios, we introduce a challenging noisy benchmark, namely Objaverse-N200, which comprises 200k-level samples annotated with 1156 realistic noisy labels. Extensive experiments on both traditional and the newly proposed benchmarks demonstrate the generality and superiority of our DAC, where DAC outperforms state-of-the-art models by a large margin. (i.e., with +5.9% gain on ModelNet40 and +5.8% on Objaverse-N200).

The task of re-identifying groups of people underdifferent camera views is an important yet less-studied problem.Group re-identification (Re-ID) is a very challenging task sinceit is not only adversely affected by common issues in traditionalsingle object Re-ID problems such as viewpoint and human posevariations, but it also suffers from changes in group layout andgroup membership. In this paper, we propose a novel conceptof group granularity by characterizing a group image by multi-grained objects: individual persons and sub-groups of two andthree people within a group. To achieve robust group Re-ID,we first introduce multi-grained representations which can beextracted via the development of two separate schemes, i.e. onewith hand-crafted descriptors and another with deep neuralnetworks. The proposed representation seeks to characterize bothappearance and spatial relations of multi-grained objects, and isfurther equipped with importance weights which capture varia-tions in intra-group dynamics. Optimal group-wise matching isfacilitated by a multi-order matching process which in turn,dynamically updates the importance weights in iterative fashion.We evaluated on three multi-camera group datasets containingcomplex scenarios and large dynamics, with experimental resultsdemonstrating the effectiveness of our approach.
