• Abstract: In real-world scenarios classification models are often required to perform robustly when predicting samples belonging to classes that have not appeared during its training stage. Open Set Recognition addresses this issue by devising models capable of detecting unknown classes from samples arriving during the testing phase, while maintaining a good level of performance in the classification of samples belonging to known classes. This review comprehensively overviews the recent literature related to Open Set Recognition, identifying common practices, limitations, and connections of this field with other machine learning research areas, such as continual learning, out-of-distribution detection, novelty detection, and uncertainty estimation. Our work also uncovers open problems and suggests several research directions that may motivate and articulate future efforts towards more safe Artificial Intelligence methods.

  Anomaly detection algorithms for feature-vector data identify anomalies as outliers, but outlier detection has not worked well in deep learning. This paper proposes the Familiarity Hypothesis that these methods succeed because they are detecting the absence of familiar learned features rather than the presence of novelty. The paper concludes with a discussion of whether familiarity detection is an inevitable consequence of representation learning.

  Machine learning models often encounter samples that are diverged from the training distribution.

  In open set recognition, a classifier has to detect unknown classes that are not known at training time. Recently proposed Capsule Networks have shown to outperform alternatives in many fields, particularly in image recognition. In our proposal, during training, capsules features of the same known class are encouraged to match a pre-defined gaussian, one for each class.

  Open set recognition aims to simultaneously classify samples from predefined classes and identify the rest as 'unknown' In this paper, we propose a new concept, Reciprocal Point, which is the potential representation of the extra-class space corresponding to each known category. Based on the bounded space constructed by reciprocal points, the risk of unknown is reduced through multi-category interaction.
