• Abstract: Recent advances in out-of-distribution (OOD) detection on image data show that pre-trained neural network classifiers can separate in-distribution (ID) from OOD data well, leveraging the class-discriminative ability of the model itself. Methods have been proposed that either use logit information directly or that process the model's penultimate layer activations. With "WeiPer", we introduce perturbations of the class projections in the final fully connected layer which creates a richer representation of the input. We show that this simple trick can improve the OOD detection performance of a variety of methods and additionally propose a distance-based method that leverages the properties of the augmented WeiPer space. We achieve state-of-the-art OOD detection results across multiple benchmarks of the OpenOOD framework, especially pronounced in difficult settings in which OOD samples are positioned close to the training set distribution. We support our findings with theoretical motivations and empirical observations, and run extensive ablations to provide insights into why WeiPer works.

• Can OOD Object Detectors Learn from Foundation Models? [56.03404530594071]
  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.

  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.

  In this paper, we offer insights and analyses of recent state-of-the-art out-of-distribution (OOD) detection methods. We demonstrate that activation pruning has a detrimental effect on OOD detection, while activation scaling enhances it. We achieve AUROC scores of +1.85% for near-OOD and +0.74% for far-OOD datasets on the OpenOOD v1.5 ImageNet-1K benchmark.

  Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection aims to detect "unknown" data whose labels have not been seen during the in-distribution (ID) training process. Recent progress in representation learning gives rise to distance-based OOD detection. We propose Multi-scale OOD DEtection (MODE), a first framework leveraging both global visual information and local region details.
