• Abstract: Unsupervised anomaly detection (AD) aims to train robust detection models using only normal samples, while can generalize well to unseen anomalies. Recent research focuses on a unified unsupervised AD setting in which only one model is trained for all classes, i.e., n-class-one-model paradigm. Feature-reconstruction-based methods achieve state-of-the-art performance in this scenario. However, existing methods often suffer from a lack of sufficient contextual awareness, thereby compromising the quality of the reconstruction. To address this issue, we introduce a novel Reconstruction as Sequence (RAS) method, which enhances the contextual correspondence during feature reconstruction from a sequence modeling perspective. In particular, based on the transformer technique, we integrate a specialized RASFormer block into RAS. This block enables the capture of spatial relationships among different image regions and enhances sequential dependencies throughout the reconstruction process. By incorporating the RASFormer block, our RAS method achieves superior contextual awareness capabilities, leading to remarkable performance. Experimental results show that our RAS significantly outperforms competing methods, well demonstrating the effectiveness and superiority of our method. Our code is available at https://github.com/Nothingtolose9979/RAS.

  In unsupervised anomaly detection (UAD) research, it is necessary to develop a computationally efficient and scalable solution. We revisit the reconstruction-by-inpainting approach and rethink to improve it by analyzing strengths and weaknesses. We propose Feature Attenuation of Defective Representation (FADeR) that only employs two layers which attenuates feature information of anomaly reconstruction.
