Despite widespread recognition of their importance in determining the performance of an object re-ID model, not enough attention is paid to how these factors affect re-ID systems. One of the major impediments to investigating how these factors affect the performance of re-ID models is the lack of datasets with unbiased distribution of these difficult visual conditions. To make up for the lack of large-scale datasets with a balanced distribution of such photometric and geometric transforms, recent studies suggest using game engines to generate synthetic datasets. This study proposes a quantitative investigation of the impact of two critical visual factors: illumination and Tranfomer-based re-ID models on synthetic dataset. © 2022 IEEE. %O cited By 0; Conference of 2022 International Conference on Future Trends in Smart Communities, ICFTSC 2022 ; Conference Date: 1 December 2022 Through 2 December 2022; Conference Code:186671 %J 2022 International Conference on Future Trends in Smart Communities, ICFTSC 2022 %L scholars17241 %D 2022 %R 10.1109/ICFTSC57269.2022.10039913
