Autoregressive Multimodal Anomaly Detection with Large Language Models for Microservice Systems

The paper introduces LLMMAD, an autoregressive multimodal anomaly detection framework that leverages Large Language Models for microservice systems. It addresses two key limitations of existing methods—ignoring modality-specific traits and the identity-shortcut problem—by embedding multimodal data into a unified sequence for LLM processing while preserving modality-specific information through dedicated reconstruction heads, and by using a prediction-driven autoregressive objective to avoid copying inputs. Experiments on three real-world datasets show LLMMAD outperforms state-of-the-art approaches, improving F1-scores by up to 3.1%.

Adaptive Multi-Granularity Temporal Modeling for Weakly Supervised Video Anomaly Detection

The paper introduces an adaptive temporal modeling framework for weakly supervised video anomaly detection that addresses the limitations of rigid Multiple Instance Learning approaches. It presents a Temporal Refinement Module using dynamic positional encoding and a learnable class token to capture long‑range dependencies, and an Event Segmentation Module that identifies event boundaries via temporal discontinuity analysis to produce discriminative event‑level representations. An adaptive similarity‑based fusion strategy replaces fixed top‑k heuristics, dynamically integrating snippet‑level and event‑level anomaly scores into video‑level predictions, and the method outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines on two benchmarks.

Structured Temporal Causality for Interpretable Multivariate Time Series Anomaly Detection

Structured Temporal Causality for Interpretable Multivariate Time Series Anomaly Detection introduces OracleAD, an unsupervised framework that encodes each variable’s past into a causal embedding to jointly predict the present and reconstruct the input window. The embeddings are projected via self‑attention into a shared latent space, capturing dynamic spatial relationships that are aligned to a Stable Latent Structure (SLS) representing normal-state relationships. Anomalies are detected through a dual scoring mechanism based on prediction error and deviation from the SLS, allowing fine‑grained diagnosis and root‑cause identification at the variable level.
