arXiv:2505. 04608v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Responsibly deploying artificial intelligence (AI) / machine learning (ML) systems in high-stakes settings arguably requires not only proof of system reliability, but also continual, post-deployment monitoring to quickly detect and address any unsafe behavior.
arXiv:2512. 07541v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inspired by graph-based methodologies, we introduce a novel graph-spanning algorithm designed to identify changes in both offline and online data across low to high dimensions.
arXiv:2605. 15375v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Remote sensing change detection (RSCD) localises changes between two images of the same geographic region.
arXiv:2608. 13922v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Detecting distributional changes in high dimension is difficult when neither the pre-change nor post-change density is parametrically specified.
The paper introduces a sequential change‑point detection method for time‑ordered data where neither the pre‑ nor post‑change distributions have closed forms. It trains a conditional diffusion model on pre‑change data, uses its probability flow ODE to map observations to a Gaussian latent space, and then applies the Maximum Mean Discrepancy as a test statistic. The authors derive closed‑form components under the Gaussian null, establish the statistic’s asymptotic distribution as a degenerate U‑statistic, and implement an online Shiryaev–Roberts procedure with exact threshold calibration to detect arbitrary distributional shifts without parametric assumptions.
The paper introduces MaSoN, an end-to-end unsupervised remote sensing change detection framework that synthesises diverse changes directly in latent feature space during training. By generating changes based on feature statistics of the target data, MaSoN produces data‑driven variations that align with the target domain and can be applied to new modalities such as SAR and multispectral imagery. The method achieves a 14.1 percentage point improvement in average F1 score across five benchmarks, demonstrating strong generalisation across diverse change types.
