GeoMAD: Geometry-Aware Multi-View Anomaly Detection via Deformable Fusion and Distributional Alignment

GeoMAD is a multi‑view anomaly detection framework that fuses multiple camera viewpoints while maintaining geometric awareness and scalability to multi‑class industrial settings. It introduces a Cross‑view Deformable Fusion Module (CDFM) that learns view‑pair‑specific sampling offsets on 2D feature maps, enabling hierarchical cross‑view correspondence without camera calibration or voxel construction. Additionally, Distributional View Alignment (DVA) provides a self‑supervised loss that aligns bottleneck distributions across views, ensuring global consistency without pixel‑level correspondence. Together, CDFM and DVA achieve geometry‑aware, distribution‑consistent fusion and demonstrate strong detection and localization performance on Real‑IAD and MANTA‑Tiny datasets.

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.

Self-Geometry: GT-Free and Plug-and-Play Test-Time Adaptation for Geometrically Consistent 3D Vision Foundation Models

The paper introduces Self-Geometry, a plug‑and‑play test‑time adaptation framework that enforces explicit multi‑view geometric constraints on Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) using 2D pixel correspondences as pseudo ground truth. It combines Geometric Disentanglement Optimization—mixing Multi‑View and Epipolar Consistency losses with Gradient Disentanglement—to avoid gradient conflicts, a Frame Angular‑Neighbor sampler based on SO(3) geodesic distances to select informative views, and a Lightweight TTA module that adapts VFMs via LoRA. Experiments on six VFMs and four benchmarks (7Scenes, ETH3D, ScanNet++, HiRoom) show consistent improvements in pose and geometry estimation.

Warp-free Cross-view Geo-localization via Feature-space Consensus Mining

Cross-view geo-localization is challenging due to drastic viewpoint changes and large appearance discrepancies between street-level and satellite imagery. Although existing methods often use geometric warping to expose co-visible cues, such transformations rely on restrictive spatial assumptions and inevitably introduce severe visual distortions under view-dependent visibility, yielding noisy supervision and fragile correspondences.

Geometric Inconsistency Localization in Multi-View Image Sets

The paper introduces DeformView, a wide‑baseline multi‑view dataset with pixel‑level annotations of geometric inconsistencies, and evaluates existing multi‑view consistency‑scoring methods, finding they transfer poorly to forensic localization tasks. To address this, the authors propose DEFECt3R, a lightweight learning‑based classifier that leverages cross‑view feature relationships and hard negative supervision to localize inconsistencies at the pixel level, achieving better performance and fewer false positives. Ablation studies confirm the importance of feature representations and correspondence quality for localization.
