Out-of-Distribution Semantic Occupancy Prediction

The paper introduces Out-of-Distribution Semantic Occupancy Prediction, a task that focuses on detecting unknown objects in 3D voxel space for autonomous driving. It proposes Realistic Anomaly Augmentation to create two new datasets, VAA-KITTI and VAA-KITTI-360, and presents the OccOoD framework, which uses Cross‑Space Semantic Refinement to improve OoD detection while maintaining semantic occupancy accuracy. Experiments show OccOoD achieves an AuROC of 65.50% and an AuPRCr of 31.83% within a 1.2 m radius, demonstrating strong generalization to real‑world urban scenes.

Training-Free Logical and Structural Anomaly Detection via Calibrated Fusion

The paper introduces a training‑free anomaly detector that simultaneously handles structural and logical defects by calibrating heterogeneous anomaly cues with statistics from normal images. This calibration aligns frozen representations, allowing their fusion without extra training or part‑level supervision. The resulting method achieves state‑of‑the‑art AUROC scores on MVTec‑LOCO and remains competitive on MVTec‑AD.

See More, Detect Less? Taming Information Leakage in Multi-View Anomaly Detection

The paper identifies a problem in multi‑view anomaly detection called cross‑view information leakage, where fusing multiple inspection views can cause normal features to mask anomalies during reconstruction. To address this, the authors propose GLAD, a framework that uses a Global‑Local Attention Driven approach, combining vision foundation model features with two fusion modules: Multi‑view Merging Attention for local, weighted fusion and Object‑Guided Attention for global context aggregation. Experiments on Real‑IAD and MANTA‑Tiny demonstrate that GLAD outperforms existing methods across various metrics, underscoring the importance of restricting information flow to preserve the reconstruction gap.

Background-Free Objectness Learning for Class-Agnostic Detection

Background-Free Objectness Learning (B-FOR) is a dense, class‑agnostic detection framework that learns objectness without treating unlabeled regions as background. It predicts multi‑scale object‑center and scale fields, using spatially structured soft targets to supervise only reliable annotated areas and introduces displacement‑aware scale fields to model object extent. Experiments on PASCAL VOC, MS‑COCO, and Open Images show B‑FOR improves recall by over +10 AR points compared to prior class‑agnostic baselines, with ablation studies confirming the importance of localized supervision and displacement‑aware scaling.
