The paper introduces an adaptive temporal modeling framework for weakly supervised video anomaly detection that addresses the limitations of rigid Multiple Instance Learning approaches. It presents a Temporal Refinement Module using dynamic positional encoding and a learnable class token to capture long‑range dependencies, and an Event Segmentation Module that identifies event boundaries via temporal discontinuity analysis to produce discriminative event‑level representations. An adaptive similarity‑based fusion strategy replaces fixed top‑k heuristics, dynamically integrating snippet‑level and event‑level anomaly scores into video‑level predictions, and the method outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines on two benchmarks.

The paper introduces CaC, a coarse‑to‑fine anomaly reward model that uses Vision‑Language Models to first scan globally for anomalous time windows, then ground anomalies spatially, and finally reason with structured spatiotemporal Chain‑of‑Thought. It builds the first large‑scale generated video anomaly dataset with detailed annotations and trains the model through a three‑stage progressive paradigm, including reinforcement learning with Group Relative Policy Optimization. Experiments show CaC improves fine‑grained anomaly detection by 25.7% and reduces generated‑video anomalies by 11.7% while enhancing overall video quality.

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.
