• Abstract summary: We introduce TRUSTED, a new OOD detector for classifiers based on Transformer architectures that meets operational requirements. The efficiency of TRUSTED relies on the fruitful idea that all hidden layers carry relevant information to detect OOD examples. Our experiments involve 51k model configurations, including various checkpoints, seeds, datasets, and demonstrate that TRUSTED achieves state-of-the-art performances.

• Abstract: Deep learning methods have boosted the adoption of NLP systems in real-life applications. However, they turn out to be vulnerable to distribution shifts over time which may cause severe dysfunctions in production systems, urging practitioners to develop tools to detect out-of-distribution (OOD) samples through the lens of the neural network. In this paper, we introduce TRUSTED, a new OOD detector for classifiers based on Transformer architectures that meets operational requirements: it is unsupervised and fast to compute. The efficiency of TRUSTED relies on the fruitful idea that all hidden layers carry relevant information to detect OOD examples. Based on this, for a given input, TRUSTED consists in (i) aggregating this information and (ii) computing a similarity score by exploiting the training distribution, leveraging the powerful concept of data depth. Our extensive numerical experiments involve 51k model configurations, including various checkpoints, seeds, and datasets, and demonstrate that TRUSTED achieves state-of-the-art performances. In particular, it improves previous AUROC over 3 points.

  Out-of-distribution (OOD) object detection is a challenging task due to the absence of open-set OOD data. Inspired by recent advancements in text-to-image generative models, we study the potential of generative models trained on large-scale open-set data to synthesize OOD samples. We introduce SyncOOD, a simple data curation method that capitalizes on the capabilities of large foundation models.

  One of the challenges for neural networks in real-life applications is the overconfident errors these models make when the data is not from the original training distribution. We propose the idea of leveraging the information embedded in the gradient of the loss function during training to enable the network to learn a desired OOD score for each sample. We also develop a novel energy-based sampling method to allow the network to be exposed to more informative OOD samples during the training phase.

  This paper addresses the challenging task of long-tailed OOD detection. The main difficulty lies in distinguishing OOD data from samples belonging to the tail classes. We propose two simple ideas: (1) Expanding the in-distribution class space by introducing multiple abstention classes, and (2) Augmenting the context-limited tail classes by overlaying images onto the context-rich OOD 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.
