The paper introduces Anomaly‑LR, a defect‑grounded latent reasoning framework for industrial anomaly detection that builds a global understanding of an image and then refines anomaly‑relevant representations directly in visual latent space. It also presents IAD‑LR‑22K, a new instruction dataset with 22,228 image‑question pairs and detailed annotations. Experiments demonstrate that Anomaly‑LR outperforms comparable‑scale methods on multiple IAD benchmarks without needing external references or tools.

The paper investigates whether in‑domain training alone can enable multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to perform fine‑grained industrial anomaly understanding (MM‑IAU). It shows that even specialized MLLMs fail to match human experts on defect localization and detection, and that combining different MLLMs does not eliminate this shortfall. To address this, the authors propose SiGMA, a spatially grounded multi‑agent framework that splits tasks among heterogeneous MLLM agents and a dedicated visual defect expert, achieving 85.2% accuracy on the MMAD benchmark—close to human performance and surpassing the best trained specialist.
