As the humanity was entering modern times, the notion of personal identity came into the limelight among many philosophers, giving rise to a range of related theories and concepts. Of them, the skepticism about personal identity advanced by David Hume is still sending us an important message. Dealing with the notion of personal identity, he introduced the three relations of resemblance, contiguity, and causation, but renounced them as having any objective basis from which to develop them into viable principles for explaining our notions of personal identity. However, in dealing with the problem of personal identity, consistency of standards is more important than their objectivity, and the difficulties facing the humanity providing accurate answers to compelling questions such as those about the self and death are basically ascribable to our failure to provide consistent standards. Applying a consistent standard, it becomes clear that non-identity among others and personal identity are incompatible, and this points to the need for a shift of perspective in ethics. This paper concludes that the relations among humans and many different points in time within a self are fundamentally the same, and going one step further, intends to set up a new framework of ethics including a concept of the universal effect of existence.

Recent deep Re-ID models mainly focus on learning high-level semantic features, while failing to explicitly explore color information which is one of the most important cues for person Re-ID. In this paper, we propose a novel Color-Sensitive Re-ID to take full advantage of color information. On one hand, we train our model with real and fake images. By using the extra fake images, more color information can be exploited and it can avoid overfitting during training. On the other hand, we also train our model with images of the same person with different colors. By doing so, features can be forced to focus on the color difference in regions. To generate fake images with specified colors, we propose a novel Color Translation GAN (CTGAN) to learn mappings between different clothing colors and preserve identity consistency among the same clothing color. Extensive evaluations on two benchmark datasets show that our approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art  Re-ID models.

Our research frame work concerned on delineating the relationship between the perceived spousal appraisal of female’s Identity Consistency(IC) and its impact on their sense of wellbeing. Identity refers to a person’s sense of self as unique being developed out of the various intimate figures and associations of adolescence (Erikson, 1959). Previous research suggests that consistent self-image across intimate relationships is more valued in western society than eastern society (Heine, 2001; Heine & Lehman, 1997, 1999; Markus & Kitayama, 1994; Suh, 2002, English and Chen, 2011). Moreover, contradictory findings have been observed in eastern culture where Shuh (2002) in her study found consistency of Identity  is less valued in eastern culture where as Dhar (2010) in her study concluded with reversed findings that Consistency is valued in eastern culture. Shuh (2002) used 20 maximum variability traits to measure one’s Identity Consistency (IC) whereas Dhar (2010) used 80 moderate variability traits to measure one’s Identity consistency. Hence, It was needed to investigate further this contradictory findings in eastern culture. The sample comprised of 130 love married couples (non working female partner).They were administered Identity Consistency scale ( Prepared by Dhar,2010) and Subjective wellbeing Scale (Sell and Nagpal, 1992). Trait Selection for Identity Consistency Scale:  For the present study, initially 52 maximum variability traits (like sensitive, talkative etc) along with 80 moderate variability traits from Dhar’s study (like anxious, submissive etc)  were considered and finally 50 traits were selected with mixed of maximum variability and moderate variability traits to assess Identity Consistency of  females for the present study. Internal consistency of each female has been obtained in terms of percentage of variance by using factor analysis by principal component method. Mean, standard deviations ,’t’ test , Product moment coefficient of correlation and Stepwise Multiple Regression Analysis have been carried out for further analysis with the considered variables in the present study. Results showed that appraised spousal overestimation of females’ IC by females are leading to a satisfactory sense of wellbeing of them may be indicative of the fact that they find the meaningfulness while appraised positively about their inner integrity by ‘the person with whom they share the most intimate relation’. However, females’ self appraisal of IC is independent on their sense of wellbeing leading to the fact that they are less disturbed by this incongruity.
