• Authors: Anne-Sophie Collin and Christophe De Vleeschouwer
• Abstract summary: anomaly detection relies on the reconstruction residual or, alternatively, on the reconstruction uncertainty. We consider an autoencoder architecture with skip connections to improve the sharpness of the reconstruction. We show that this model favors the reconstruction of clean images from arbitrary real-world images, regardless of the actual defects appearance.

• Abstract: In industrial vision, the anomaly detection problem can be addressed with an autoencoder trained to map an arbitrary image, i.e. with or without any defect, to a clean image, i.e. without any defect. In this approach, anomaly detection relies conventionally on the reconstruction residual or, alternatively, on the reconstruction uncertainty. To improve the sharpness of the reconstruction, we consider an autoencoder architecture with skip connections. In the common scenario where only clean images are available for training, we propose to corrupt them with a synthetic noise model to prevent the convergence of the network towards the identity mapping, and introduce an original Stain noise model for that purpose. We show that this model favors the reconstruction of clean images from arbitrary real-world images, regardless of the actual defects appearance. In addition to demonstrating the relevance of our approach, our validation provides the first consistent assessment of reconstruction-based methods, by comparing their performance over the MVTec AD dataset, both for pixel- and image-wise anomaly detection.

We propose a novel epistemic UAD method, namely ReContrast, which optimize the entire network to reduce biases towards the pre-trained image domain. We conduct experiments across two popular industrial defect detection benchmarks and three medical image UAD tasks, which shows our superiority over current state-of-the-art methods.

  Person re-identification is vital for monitoring and tracking crowd movement to enhance public security. In this work, we propose a plausible solution by developing effective occlusion detection and reconstruction framework for RGB images/videos consisting of Deep Neural Networks. Specifically, a CNN-based occlusion detection model classifies individual input frames, followed by a Conv-LSTM and Autoencoder to reconstruct the occluded pixels corresponding to the occluded frames for sequential (video) and non-sequential (image) data.
