• Abstract: Industrial anomaly inspection is severely hindered by the scarcity of real anomalous data. Zero-shot industrial anomaly generation addresses this by generating anomalies on specific products without requiring any of their real anomalous images. However, existing methods suffer from two critical limitations, i.e., inaccurate anomaly information acquisition and uncontrolled anomaly-product fusion. To overcome these challenges, we propose DeCo, which decouples the anomaly structure from its source product, and explicitly recouples it with the normal textures of the target product. During anomaly information acquisition, Dual-Routing Flow (DR-Flow) binds the texture-invariant anomaly structure to an abnormal token, while a parallel constraint, Product-Invariant Flow (PI-Flow), prevents the abnormal token from binding the source product. During anomaly-product fusion, we propose a hybrid injection to recouple the acquired anomaly structure with the target product, and Product Compatibility Correction (PCC) to compensate for the incompatibility between the acquired anomaly structure and the product. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DeCo establishes a new state-of-the-art. Training downstream detection models on our generated data yields massive pixel AP improvements of 5.1% on MVTec AD and 8.2% on VisA. Code is available at https://github.com/HUST-SLOW/DeCo.
