Abstract: Fine-grained wildlife re-identification remains a challenging area in research. Current state-of-the-art approaches apply a detection and re-identification pipeline. We propose a one-stage end-to-end detection and re-identification model that performs identity searching within the latent space. We adopt DINOv2 for robust spatial geometry and MegaDescriptor for wildlife re-identification. We enhance latent queries with prompt re-identification features. A detection decoder queries the scene latent space to establish object boundaries around the target identity. Preliminary findings reflect a competitive mean average precision score of 30.584% compared to the state-of-the-art two stage approach of 44.89%. Qualitative results depict effective bounding and identification of animal identities.
