Reconstruction-based methods are a cornerstone of unsupervised image anomaly detection, but they remain vulnerable to \emph{outlier leakage}, where standard mean squared error (MSE) loss drives the model to faithfully reconstruct anomalous patterns. We propose a Non-linear Reconstruction Loss that applies a sigmoid-based squashing function to suppress high-magnitude features, preventing outliers from dominating optimization while preserving sensitivity to normal patterns.
arXiv:2607. 21773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we propose and study a robust variant of the smart predict-then-optimize approach that accounts for prediction shifts due to disturbance in the covariate feature space.

arXiv:2510. 24043v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper presents Two-Stage LKPLO, a novel multi-stage outlier detection framework that overcomes the coexisting limitations of conventional projection-based methods: their reliance on a fixed statistical metric and their assumption of a single data structure.

arXiv:2501. 10870v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The principal objective of this work is twofold within nonparametric regression settings: (1) to establish the minimax optimal convergence rates for fixed-bandwidth Gaussian kernel spectral algorithms when the true regression function resides in a Sobolev space, and (2) to apply Gaussian spectral algorithms for achieving robust and adaptive transfer learning under concept shift.
