• Abstract summary: Prior anomaly detection methods were optimized for a specific "known" abnormality. In this study, we compare various anomaly detection methods across four medical datasets. We propose a simple decision-level ensemble method to leverage the advantage of different kinds of anomaly detection without knowing the abnormality.

• Abstract: Many anomaly detection approaches, especially deep learning methods, have been recently developed to identify abnormal image morphology by only employing normal images during training. Unfortunately, many prior anomaly detection methods were optimized for a specific "known" abnormality (e.g., brain tumor, bone fraction, cell types). Moreover, even though only the normal images were used in the training process, the abnormal images were often employed during the validation process (e.g., epoch selection, hyper-parameter tuning), which might leak the supposed ``unknown" abnormality unintentionally. In this study, we investigated these two essential aspects regarding universal anomaly detection in medical images by (1) comparing various anomaly detection methods across four medical datasets, (2) investigating the inevitable but often neglected issues on how to unbiasedly select the optimal anomaly detection model during the validation phase using only normal images, and (3) proposing a simple decision-level ensemble method to leverage the advantage of different kinds of anomaly detection without knowing the abnormality. The results of our experiments indicate that none of the evaluated methods consistently achieved the best performance across all datasets. Our proposed method enhanced the robustness of performance in general (average AUC 0.956).

We propose a global and local adaptive diffusion model (abbreviated to GLAD) for unsupervised anomaly detection.

SAGAN generates high-quality health images corresponding to unlabeled data, guided by the reconstruction of normal images and restoration of pseudo-anomaly images. Extensive experiments on three medical datasets demonstrate that the proposed SAGAN outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.

  Anomaly detection is the process of identifying atypical data samples that significantly deviate from the majority of the dataset. We propose a new anomaly detection method based on diffusion ODEs by estimating the density of features extracted from medical images.

Ensembles of reconstruction networks are designed to model the distribution of normal images and the distribution of both normal and unlabeled images. We propose a new perspective on self-supervised learning, which is designed to refine the anomaly scores rather than detect anomalies directly.
