The paper introduces TITAnD, a Trajectory Image Transformer that converts dense and sparse GPS trajectories into a Hyperspectral Trajectory Image (HTI) and applies vision-based classification and segmentation for anomaly detection. It employs a Cyclic Factorized Transformer (CFT) that splits attention along within-day and across-day axes, drastically reducing computational cost and enabling multi-month analysis. Empirical results show TITAnD outperforms existing sparse and dense benchmarks, achieving higher AUC-PR and faster inference than comparable Transformers.

The paper introduces VisAnomBench, a new benchmark that augments public time‑series datasets with high‑quality natural‑language anomaly explanations generated by large vision‑language models. Using this benchmark, the authors fine‑tune a parameter‑efficient VLM called VisAnomReasoner, which achieves significantly higher precision and F1 scores than existing baselines on VisAnomBench and also generalizes well to the TSB‑AD‑U benchmark.

MAADBench is a refreshable benchmark for anomaly detection in multi‑agent systems powered by large language models. It addresses the challenge of keeping benchmarks current by sampling and coupling generative tasks, generating trace data under configurable LLM backbones, and automatically providing deterministic step‑level labels. The authors evaluated 25 anomaly‑detection methods on 5,200 labeled traces, finding that existing approaches depend heavily on supervision, struggle with subtle MAS‑specific anomalies, and lack robustness across different LLM backbones.

arXiv:2605. 22779v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Production systems generate millions of log lines daily, yet most anomaly detectors operate at the session or window-level, flagging groups of lines rather than identifying the specific message responsible.

DriftNet is a dual‑head trajectory Transformer designed to detect and localize prompt injection attacks in large language model agents. It processes logged tool‑call trajectories, classifying each as compromised or not while labeling every step as benign, injection point, hijacked, or failed injection. On the AgentDrift benchmark, DriftNet achieves high accuracy, with an F1 score of 0.983, 98.7% exact injection‑point recovery, and low false‑alarm rates.

MoG-VLM is a motion‑guided vision‑language model designed for efficient video anomaly detection. It uses a lightweight motion signal, Temporal Gradient Magnitude, to perform content‑aware sampling and activates dense multi‑frame VLM reasoning only around frames with high anomaly likelihood via a hierarchical dual‑stream design. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art AUC‑ROC scores on four benchmarks and delivers a 1.31× inference speedup on XD‑Violence.

arXiv:2606. 14724v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video anomaly detection in surveillance settings must balance detection accuracy against real-time throughput, a tension that existing methods address either through stronger feature extractors or more efficient architectures, but rarely both.
