• Abstract summary: We show that self-distillation of the in-distribution training set together with contrasting against negative examples strongly improves OOD detection. We observe that by leveraging negative samples, which keep the statistics of low-level features while changing the high-level semantics, higher average detection performance is obtained.

• Abstract: Detecting whether examples belong to a given in-distribution or are Out-Of-Distribution (OOD) requires identifying features specific to the in-distribution. In the absence of labels, these features can be learned by self-supervised techniques under the generic assumption that the most abstract features are those which are statistically most over-represented in comparison to other distributions from the same domain. In this work, we show that self-distillation of the in-distribution training set together with contrasting against negative examples derived from shifting transformation of auxiliary data strongly improves OOD detection. We find that this improvement depends on how the negative samples are generated. In particular, we observe that by leveraging negative samples, which keep the statistics of low-level features while changing the high-level semantics, higher average detection performance is obtained. Furthermore, good negative sampling strategies can be identified from the sensitivity of the OOD detection score. The efficiency of our approach is demonstrated across a diverse range of OOD detection problems, setting new benchmarks for unsupervised OOD detection in the visual domain.

• Margin-bounded Confidence Scores for Out-of-Distribution Detection [2.373572816573706]
  We propose a novel method called Margin bounded Confidence Scores (MaCS) to address the nontrivial OOD detection problem. MaCS enlarges the disparity between ID and OOD scores, which in turn makes the decision boundary more compact. Experiments on various benchmark datasets for image classification tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

  Unsupervised out-of-distribution (U-OOD) detection is to identify data samples with a detector trained solely on unlabeled in-distribution (ID) data. Recent studies have developed various detectors based on DGMs to move beyond likelihood. We apply two techniques for each direction, specifically post-hoc prior and dataset entropy-mutual calibration. Experimental results demonstrate that the Resultant could be a new state-of-the-art U-OOD detector.

  Most existing out-of-distribution (OOD) detection benchmarks classify samples with novel labels as the OOD data. Some marginal OOD samples actually have close semantic contents to the in-distribution (ID) sample, which makes determining the OOD sample a Sorites Paradox. We construct a benchmark named Incremental Shift OOD (IS-OOD) to address the issue.

  Training data for deep-neural-network-based classifiers are usually assumed to be sampled from the same distribution. When part of the test samples are drawn from a distribution that is far away from that of the training samples, the trained neural network has a tendency to make high confidence predictions for these OOD samples. We propose a Wasserstein-based out-of-distribution detection (WOOD) method to overcome these challenges.

  We show that current out-of-distribution (OOD) detection algorithms for neural networks produce unsatisfactory results in a variety of OOD detection scenarios. This paper studies how such "hard" OOD scenarios can benefit from adjusting the detection method after observing a batch of the test data. We propose a novel method that uses an artificial labeling scheme for the test data and regularization to obtain ensembles of models that produce contradictory predictions only on the OOD samples in a test batch.
