arXiv:2608. 15802v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection remains challenging for image classifiers, especially when near-OOD samples lie close to in-distribution (ID) class boundaries.
arXiv:2603. 18481v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection remains a critical challenge in open-world learning, where models must adapt to evolving data distributions.
arXiv:2608. 08308v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern vision systems must operate in "open-world" settings, where models must recognize known categories and detect unseen or anomalous content.
arXiv:2605. 07821v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is crucial for ensuring the reliability of deep learning models.
The paper introduces a technique for examining Vision Transformers by decomposing each affine layer’s weight matrix with Singular Value Decomposition and projecting activations onto the leading right singular vectors, yielding compact, layer‑intrinsic representations. By fitting class‑conditional density models at each layer, the authors generate per‑class typicality scores that are stacked into two‑dimensional typicality maps, summarizing how class‑specific evidence evolves through the network. From these maps, two post‑hoc out‑of‑distribution detection scores are derived: the Prototype Alignment Score (PAS), which measures agreement with class reference prototypes, and the Multi‑Layer Soft Voting (MLSV) score, which captures cross‑layer consensus without stored prototypes, achieving competitive performance on ViT‑B/16 fine‑tuned on CIFAR‑100 without retraining or OOD exposure.
arXiv:2503. 05169v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Applying machine learning to increasingly high-dimensional problems with sparse or biased training data increases the risk that a model is used on inputs outside its training domain.
