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.
