• Abstract: Automatic detection of visual anomalies and changes in the environment has been a topic of recurrent attention in the fields of machine learning and computer vision over the past decades. A visual anomaly or change detection algorithm identifies regions of an image that differ from a reference image or dataset. The majority of existing approaches focus on anomaly or fault detection in a specific class of images or environments, while general purpose visual anomaly detection algorithms are more scarce in the literature. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive deep learning framework for detecting anomalies and changes in a priori unknown environments after a reference dataset is gathered, and without need for retraining the model. We use the SuperPoint and SuperGlue feature extraction and matching methods to detect anomalies based on reference images taken from a similar location and with partial overlapping of the field of view. We also introduce a self-calibrating method for the proposed model in order to address the problem of sensitivity to feature matching thresholds and environmental conditions. To evaluate the proposed framework, we have used a ground robot system for the purpose of reference and query data collection. We show that high accuracy can be obtained using the proposed method. We also show that the calibration process enhances changes and foreign object detection performance

  This paper presents a hybrid framework that integrates both statistical feature selection and classification techniques to improve defect detection accuracy.

  Inspection and monitoring of infrastructure assets requires identifying visual anomalies in scenes periodically photographed over time. Images collected manually or with robots such as unmanned aerial vehicles from the same scene at different instances in time are typically not perfectly aligned. Current unsupervised pixel-level anomaly detection methods have mainly been developed for industrial settings. We present a novel network termed OmniAD to address the Scene AD problem posed.

• Reference-based Defect Detection Network [57.89399576743665]
  The first issue is the texture shift which means a trained defect detector model will be easily affected by unseen texture. The second issue is partial visual confusion which indicates that a partial defect box is visually similar with a complete box. We propose a Reference-based Defect Detection Network (RDDN) to tackle these two problems.
