The paper introduces NC‑TFAD, a task‑free continual anomaly detection framework that leverages neural‑collapse geometry to learn from non‑stationary data streams without task boundaries. It freezes a pretrained backbone, aligns streaming features to a simplex Equiangular Tight Frame prototype space, and uses synthetic anomaly anchors, inter‑ and intra‑class regularization, and a Focal Neural Collapse Contrastive loss to stabilize representations and enhance normal‑anomaly separability. A normal‑patch‑prototype‑guided localization branch generates calibrated anomaly heatmaps, and extensive experiments on MVTec AD and VisA demonstrate that NC‑TFAD outperforms existing task‑free continual learning and unified anomaly detection baselines in both image‑level detection and pixel‑level localization.
The paper introduces ISP-AD, the largest publicly available industrial anomaly detection dataset, featuring both synthetic and real defects from a factory floor. It focuses on challenging, small, weakly contrasted surface defects within highly variable structured patterns, addressing the bias of existing datasets toward ideal imaging conditions. Experiments demonstrate that even a small amount of weakly labeled real defects improves model generalization and that synthetic defects can serve as a useful cold‑start baseline for scalable training.
Detecting and localizing defects in 3D point clouds is challenging because abnormal samples are scarce and diverse, while training is often limited to normal data. We propose Anomaly Factory 3D (AF3AD), a modular framework that synthesizes diverse pseudo-anomalies from normal point clouds to expand the training data for unsupervised 3D anomaly detection methods that rely on pseudo-anomalies.
The paper introduces DPA, a diffusion-based framework that decouples product-agnostic anomaly representations to enable zero-shot anomaly generation. By reusing real anomalies from existing source products and filtering them for plausibility, DPA learns product-irrelevant anomaly embeddings that can be transferred across products. An adaptive mask-guided pipeline and a training-free labeling module further refine the realism and localization of generated anomalies, leading to improved performance on MVTec-AD, VisA, and a new anomaly-transfer benchmark.
