Structural-Semantic Reciprocal Learning for Unsupervised Visible-Infrared Person Re-Identification
Unsupervised visible-infrared person re-identification (USVI-ReID) is challenging due to the large modality gap and the lack of cross-modal identity annotations. Progressive association paradigms have been proposed to gradually bridge the gap, but they suffer from two critical bottlenecks: reliance on ambiguous global representations and unchecked propagation of pseudo-label noise in an open-loop manner. To address these issues, we propose Structural-Semantic Reciprocal Learning (SSRL), a framework that transforms open-loop association into a self-correcting closed-loop system. Structurally, w
