Spatial-driven features based on image dependencies for person re-identification

•We design a GAM to capture the inter-image dependencies among a series of different pedestrian images.•We present a LAM to compute the intra-image dependencies from any pair of pixels within each pedestrian image.•We propose a specific network integration mechanism to match well the solution of the spatial dependency problem.•Extensive experiments verify that the proposed method exceeds the state-of-the-art methods.
