Recent Anomaly Detection methods achieve perfect detection and segmentation scores on well-established datasets, such as MVTec. However, many of these methods face challenges when foundational assumptions - such as consistent object scale, viewpoint, background, illumination, and centered placement - are violated.

Vision foundation models have enabled strong training-free anomaly detection (AD). However, most existing approaches rely primarily on independent local patch features, leaving the global contextual information encoded by Vision Transformers (ViTs) underexploited.

Medical image anomaly detection remains challenging because networks pretrained on natural images often exhibit limited adaptability to medical images, where abnormal patterns appear as fine-grained local shifts, multi-scale contextual mismatches, and orientation-sensitive structural deviations. To address this, we propose the Collaborative Feature Refinement Network (CFR-Net), which combines shared teacher-student feature refinement before decoding with cross-space consistency after decoding.
Weakly supervised video anomaly detection (WSVAD) has predominantly focused on temporal localization, identifying when anomalies occur while largely neglecting their spatial extent within frames. Yet, spatial localization is essential for interpretability and practical deployment in real-world settings.

Video Anomaly Detection (VAD) is inherently challenging due to the scarcity of anomalies and the large visual variability in surveillance footage, including changes in lighting, viewpoint, and human appearance. To mitigate visual noise and address privacy concerns, recent work has shifted to pose-based VAD, which focuses on motion dynamics rather than raw video data.
arXiv:2607. 22212v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visual anomaly detection requires adaptive representations and reliable decision boundaries, particularly when anomalous training samples are scarce and class distributions are highly imbalanced.
Industrial anomaly detection (IAD) requires identifying fine-grained deviations from normal visual patterns. Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can improve recognition accuracy by comparing query images with references at inference time, but these benefits rely on additional retrieval and processing.
