• Abstract: Deep anomaly detection methods have become increasingly popular in recent years, with methods like Stacked Autoencoders, Variational Autoencoders, and Generative Adversarial Networks greatly improving the state-of-the-art. Other methods rely on augmenting classical models (such as the One-Class Support Vector Machine), by learning an appropriate kernel function using Neural Networks. Recent developments in representation learning by self-supervision are proving to be very beneficial in the context of anomaly detection. Inspired by the advancements in anomaly detection using self-supervised learning in the field of computer vision, this thesis aims to develop a method for detecting anomalies by exploiting pretext tasks tailored for text corpora. This approach greatly improves the state-of-the-art on two datasets, 20Newsgroups, and AG News, for both semi-supervised and unsupervised anomaly detection, thus proving the potential for self-supervised anomaly detectors in the field of natural language processing.

• Open-Vocabulary Video Anomaly Detection [57.552523669351636]
  Video anomaly detection (VAD) with weak supervision has achieved remarkable performance in utilizing video-level labels to discriminate whether a video frame is normal or abnormal. Recent studies attempt to tackle a more realistic setting, open-set VAD, which aims to detect unseen anomalies given seen anomalies and normal videos. This paper takes a step further and explores open-vocabulary video anomaly detection (OVVAD), in which we aim to leverage pre-trained large models to detect and categorize seen and unseen anomalies.
