SPARC is a few‑shot calibration technique for vision‑based industrial anomaly detectors that corrects deployment‑time nuisances by projecting patch features onto a per‑cell subspace, requiring only up to eight verified‑normal images and no gradient updates. It operates between the encoder and detector, using a closed‑form, spatially indexed estimate based on the encoder’s native patch grid. Across seven detectors on shift‑prone benchmarks, SPARC boosts pooled Image AUROC by 13.8 pp and AU‑PRO₀.₃ by 3.5 pp, while showing modest changes on benchmarks without engineered shift.

The paper proposes Artifact-Complementary Expert Fusion (ACEF), a two‑stage framework that enhances AI‑generated image detection by combining two types of reconstruction artifacts—VAE/DDIM and SRGAN—into aligned synthetic negatives. ACEF first builds artifact‑specific experts using LoRA adaptation on a frozen backbone, then fuses their multi‑layer evidence with Layer‑wise Artifact‑Complementary Fusion (LACF) to mitigate conflicts between artifact manifolds. Experiments on 13 benchmarks show that this approach improves generalizability over existing state‑of‑the‑art methods.

The study evaluates 16 AI‑generated image detection methods in a zero‑shot setting, testing 23 pretrained variants on 12 datasets with 2.6 million images from 291 generators. Results show no single detector consistently outperforms others, with accuracy ranging from 37.5 % to 75.0 %. The study highlights that training data alignment and generator type significantly affect performance, especially against modern commercial models, and identifies systematic failure patterns across datasets.

SalArt-VQA is a diagnostic benchmark that tests whether vision‑language models can understand salient artifacts in AI‑generated images. It includes 950 images and 3,681 multiple‑choice questions that assess artifact presence, semantic localization, spatial grounding, and evidence‑grounded defect identification. The benchmark reveals that high image‑level detection accuracy can mask failures in grounded understanding, showing a trade‑off between sensitivity and calibration.

The paper introduces LUMIN, a lightweight network for manufacturing anomaly detection, and PSP, a four‑stage adaptive memory bank sampling pipeline that eliminates backbone forward passes. PSP achieves near‑random construction speed, 341× faster than FPS, while parallel similarity computation and stratified pixel sampling cut inference time by 20× with minimal accuracy loss. Experiments on five benchmarks show that LUMIN and PSP reach state‑of‑the‑art sampling accuracy with dramatically reduced latency and memory usage.
