The paper introduces a framework for out-of-distribution (OOD) detection that addresses the trade‑off between detection performance and classification accuracy caused by fine‑tuning with auxiliary outlier data. It optimizes three factors—model reminder, data sampling, and representation learning—by proposing Self‑Knowledge Distillation to preserve accuracy, Semi‑hard Outlier Sampling to enhance detection with minimal data, and Outlier‑aware Supervised Contrastive Learning to improve ID‑OOD separability. The combined approach yields cumulative gains, outperforming existing methods on diverse benchmarks, especially in long‑tailed scenarios, and offers a robust baseline for real‑world OOD detection.

MM++ (Multilayer Mahalanobis++) is a post‑hoc, scale‑invariant framework for out‑of‑distribution detection that builds a joint feature space by selecting discriminative intermediate layers based on entropy density drops and fusing them with the final representation. It uses a Ledoit‑Wolf regularized tied covariance matrix to stabilize the space, allowing reliable distance estimation without requiring auxiliary OOD data, classifier fine‑tuning, or architectural changes. The method achieves robust performance across different architectures for both near‑ and far‑OOD scenarios.
