When More References Hurt: Contamination-Aware DINOv2 Memory Banks for Few-Shot Steel Defect Detection

Patch-memory anomaly detectors assume that their reference bank is normal, an assumption that is difficult to guarantee when additional industrial images are unverified. We study whether a few trusted normal images can safely recover useful normal patches from such references without defect masks. Starting from the DINOv2 patch-memory formulation used by AnomalyDINO, we score candidate patches by distance to a clean seed bank, discard the most suspicious 20%, merge the retained patches with the seed, and enforce a fixed budget by greedy coreset selection. On Severstal, naive additional references contain 9.46% anomalous patches; the proposed trim rejects 78.1\% of them and reduces residual contamination to 2.59%. At an equal 51,200-patch development budget, the proposed bank reaches 0.1084 AUPRC versus 0.0950 for naive expansion, 0.0952 for random removal, and 0.1030 for eight clean images. Injecting only 0.5\% anomalous patches into a clean bank reduces AUPRC from 0.1030 to 0.0759. On all five completed held-out pairs, the proposed bank improves over naive expansion, with a mean gain of 0.0142 AUPRC. Reference purity is therefore a first-order design variable, and unverified images are useful only when their contribution is filtered explicitly.

Parameter-efficient Prompt Tuning of Vision Foundation Model With Adaptive Focal Loss for Interpretable MCI Screening

Mild Cognitive Impairment is a critical early stage of cognitive decline that frequently precedes Alzheimer's disease, yet its automated detection from neuropsychological drawing tests remains fundamentally constrained by data scarcity, class imbalance, and diagnostic ambiguity near clinical boundaries. Existing methodologies attempt to bypass these constraints using computationally expensive, fully fine-tuned hybrid architectures that relegate spatial explainability to a post-hoc approximation rather than an intrinsic model property. We propose a parameter-efficient framework utilizing frozen DINOv2-Small model adapted via three modality-specific learnable prompt tokens while Operating with 1.19 million trainable parameters, each token serves as a query in a shared cross-attention layer over the source image patch tokens. Crucially, spatial explainability is achieved directly through these attention maps; as a structural consequence of the architecture. Then task-conditioned embeddings fused via an attention module to quantify modality-level importance per subject. To handle boundary ambiguity, a MoCA-adapted focal loss introduced that integrates continuous cognitive scores into the training target, loss modulation, and adaptive sample weighting, strictly generalizing standard soft-label approaches. Under stratified five-fold cross-validation, the proposed architecture yields an MCI-class F1 of 0.641 and an AUC of 0.795, outperforming the computationally heavier ResViT baseline by 0.110 in MCI-class F1.

PoseDriver: A Unified Approach to Multi-Category Skeleton Detection for Autonomous Driving

Object skeletons offer a concise representation of structural information, capturing essential aspects of posture and orientation that are crucial for autonomous driving applications. However, a unified architecture that simultaneously handles multiple instances and categories using only the input image remains elusive. In this paper, we introduce PoseDriver, a unified framework for bottom-up multi-category skeleton detection tailored to common objects in driving scenarios. We model each category as a distinct task to systematically address the challenges of multi-task learning. Specifically, we propose a novel approach for lane detection based on skeleton representations, achieving state-of-the-art performance on the OpenLane dataset. Moreover, we present a new dataset for bicycle skeleton detection and assess the transferability of our framework to novel categories. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

CT Scans As Video: Efficient Intracranial Hemorrhage Detection Using Multi-Object Tracking

Automated analysis of volumetric medical imaging on edge devices is severely constrained by the high memory and computational demands of 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). This paper develops a lightweight computer vision framework that reconciles the efficiency of 2D detection with the necessity of 3D context by reformulating volumetric Computer Tomography (CT) data as sequential video streams. This video-viewpoint paradigm is applied to the time-sensitive task of Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) detection using the Hemorica dataset. To ensure operational efficiency, we benchmarked multiple generations of the YOLO architecture (v8, v10, v11 and v12) in their Nano configurations, selecting the version with the highest mAP@50 to serve as the slice-level backbone. A ByteTrack algorithm is then introduced to enforce anatomical consistency across the $z$-axis. To address the initialization lag inherent in video trackers, a hybrid inference strategy and a spatiotemporal consistency filter are proposed to distinguish true pathology from transient prediction noise. Experimental results on independent test data demonstrate that the proposed framework serves as a rigorous temporal validator, increasing detection Precision from 0.703 to 0.779 compared to the baseline 2D detector, while maintaining high sensitivity. By approximating 3D contextual reasoning at a fraction of the computational cost, this method provides a scalable solution for real-time patient prioritization in resource-constrained environments, such as mobile stroke units and IoT-enabled remote clinics.

Hemorica: A Comprehensive CT Scan Dataset for Automated Brain Hemorrhage Classification, Segmentation, and Detection

Timely diagnosis of Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) on Computed Tomography (CT) scans remains a clinical priority, yet the development of robust Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions is still hindered by fragmented public data. To close this gap, we introduce Hemorica, a publicly available collection of 372 head CT examinations acquired between 2012 and 2024. Each scan has been exhaustively annotated for five ICH subtypes-epidural (EPH), subdural (SDH), subarachnoid (SAH), intraparenchymal (IPH), and intraventricular (IVH)-yielding patient-wise and slice-wise classification labels, subtype-specific bounding boxes, two-dimensional pixel masks and three-dimensional voxel masks. A double-reading workflow, preceded by a pilot consensus phase and supported by neurosurgeon adjudication, maintained low inter-rater variability. Comprehensive statistical analysis confirms the clinical realism of the dataset. To establish reference baselines, standard convolutional and transformer architectures were fine-tuned for binary slice classification and hemorrhage segmentation. With only minimal fine-tuning, lightweight models such as MobileViT-XS achieved an F1 score of 87.8% in binary classification, whereas a U-Net with a DenseNet161 encoder reached a Dice score of 85.5% for binary lesion segmentation that validate both the quality of the annotations and the sufficiency of the sample size. Hemorica therefore offers a unified, fine-grained benchmark that supports multi-task and curriculum learning, facilitates transfer to larger but weakly labelled cohorts, and facilitates the process of designing an AI-based assistant for ICH detection and quantification systems.

YOLO-Former: YOLO Shakes Hand With ViT

The proposed YOLO-Former method seamlessly integrates the ideas of transformer and YOLOv4 to create a highly accurate and efficient object detection system. The method leverages the fast inference speed of YOLOv4 and incorporates the advantages of the transformer architecture through the integration of convolutional attention and transformer modules. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, with a mean average precision (mAP) of 85.76\% on the Pascal VOC dataset, while maintaining high prediction speed with a frame rate of 10.85 frames per second. The contribution of this work lies in the demonstration of how the innovative combination of these two state-of-the-art techniques can lead to further improvements in the field of object detection.

Wearing face mask detection using deep learning through COVID-19 pandemic

During the COVID-19 pandemic, wearing a face mask has been known to be an effective way to prevent the spread of COVID-19. In lots of monitoring tasks, humans have been replaced with computers thanks to the outstanding performance of the deep learning models. Monitoring the wearing of a face mask is another task that can be done by deep learning models with acceptable accuracy. The main challenge of this task is the limited amount of data because of the quarantine. In this paper, we did an investigation on the capability of three state-of-the-art object detection neural networks on face mask detection for real-time applications. As mentioned, here are three models used, Single Shot Detector (SSD), two versions of You Only Look Once (YOLO) i.e., YOLOv4-tiny, and YOLOv4-tiny-3l from which the best was selected. In the proposed method, according to the performance of different models, the best model that can be suitable for use in real-world and mobile device applications in comparison to other recent studies was the YOLOv4-tiny model, with 85.31% and 50.66 for mean Average Precision (mAP) and Frames Per Second (FPS), respectively. These acceptable values were achieved using two datasets with only 1531 images in three separate classes.
