• Abstract: Due to the extreme imbalance in the number of normal data and abnormal data, visual anomaly detection is important for the development of industrial automatic product quality inspection. Unsupervised methods based on reconstruction and embedding have been widely studied for anomaly detection, of which reconstruction-based methods are the most popular. However, establishing a unified model for textured surface defect detection remains a challenge because these surfaces can vary in homogeneous and non regularly ways. Furthermore, existing reconstruction-based methods do not have a strong ability to convert the defect feature to the normal feature. To address these challenges, we propose a novel unsupervised reference-based autoencoder (RB-AE) to accurately inspect a variety of textured defects. Unlike most reconstruction-based methods, artificial defects and a novel pixel-level discrimination loss function are utilized for training to enable the model to obtain pixel-level discrimination ability. First, the RB-AE employs an encoding module to extract multi-scale features of the textured surface. Subsequently, a novel reference-based attention module (RBAM) is proposed to convert the defect features to normal features to suppress the reconstruction of defects. In addition, RBAM can also effectively suppress the defective feature residual caused by skip-connection. Next, a decoding module utilizes the repaired features to reconstruct the normal texture background. Finally, a novel multiscale feature discrimination module (MSFDM) is employed to defect detection and segmentation.

  We introduce the FUTUREG framework, which incorporates two innovative modules: the Feature Purification Module (FPM) and the CFG Decoder. The FPM constrains the normality boundary within the latent space to effectively filter out anomalous features. The CFG Decoder uses layer-wise encoder representations to guide the reconstruction of filtered features, preserving fine-grained details.

  Anomaly detection has a wide range of applications and is especially important in industrial quality inspection.

In this study, a reconstruction-based method using the noise-to-norm paradigm is proposed, which avoids the invariant reconstruction of anomalous regions.
