NFAD: Nuisance-Filtered Anomaly Detection Under Distribution Shift

Recent advances in anomaly detection (AD) for industrial inspection have pushed performance on standard benchmarks toward saturation. However, strong benchmark performance does not necessarily translate to real-world deployment, as these benchmarks are primarily collected under controlled acquisition conditions. Changes in illumination, background, viewpoint, and other environmental factors can shift normal samples away from the learned normal distribution and cause false anomaly responses. We address AD under such distribution shifts by explicitly modeling nuisance variation from changing imaging conditions in feature space. Without anomaly labels or target-domain data, our Nuisance-Filtered Anomaly Detection (NFAD) framework estimates a nuisance subspace from matched feature displacements induced by content-preserving perturbations and suppresses its contribution to anomaly residuals at inference. The same subspace supports two complementary branches: full projection for image-level detection and selective suppression for pixel-level localization, preserving evidence of localized defects. On AeBAD-S, a benchmark specifically designed for AD under acquisition shifts, NFAD achieves 91.0\% image-level AUROC, establishing a new state of the art. Notably, this robustness does not come at the expense of conventional AD performance: NFAD remains competitive on standard benchmarks that do not explicitly evaluate distribution shift, including VisA, Real-IAD, and MVTec AD. These results show that explicitly suppressing such nuisance variation improves AD under distribution shift while preserving strong performance in standard settings.

GeoMAD: Geometry-Aware Multi-View Anomaly Detection via Deformable Fusion and Distributional Alignment

Multi-view anomaly detection (MvAD) detects defects by exploiting complementary observations from multiple camera viewpoints. The central challenge is to fuse views with sufficient geometric awareness while remaining scalable to multi-class industrial settings. Existing methods typically fall into two extremes: voxel-based fusion provides explicit geometric alignment but requires costly 3D construction and class-specific assumptions, whereas lightweight patch-based fusion is efficient but relies on discrete candidate matching and lacks continuous cross-view correspondence. In this paper, we propose GeoMAD, a unified multi-view, multi-class AD framework that addresses both geometric correspondence deficiency and distributional inconsistency. Our \textit{Cross-view Deformable Fusion Module} (CDFM) learns content-adaptive, view-pair-specific sampling offsets directly on 2D feature maps and arranges them across a multi-scale window pyramid with image-global reference sampling, enabling hierarchical cross-view correspondence without camera calibration, voxel construction, or class-specific 3D supervision. We further introduce \textit{Distributional View Alignment} (DVA), a self-supervised cross-view regularization loss that aligns each view's bottleneck distribution against a per-instance view-centric target, enforcing global consistency without pixel-level correspondence. Together, CDFM and DVA bridge local geometric correspondence and global distributional consistency, providing geometry-aware and distribution-consistent fusion while preserving the efficiency of 2D feature-space learning. Extensive experiments on Real-IAD and MANTA-Tiny show that GeoMAD achieves strong detection and localization performance in unified MvAD.

See More, Detect Less? Taming Information Leakage in Multi-View Anomaly Detection

In multi-view anomaly detection, more cross-view information can actually hurt. When multiple inspection views are naively fused in a reconstruction-based pipeline, normal cues from intact views propagate to the decoder, which faithfully reconstructs anomalous regions, collapsing the reconstruction gap the detector depends on. We call this failure mode \emph{cross-view information leakage} and show that effective multi-view fusion must explicitly restrict the information reaching the decoder. Building on this insight, we present GLAD(Global-Local Attention Driven framework), the first framework combining vision foundation model features with local and global cross-view fusion for multi-view anomaly detection. The Multi-view Merging Attention (MMA) module performs local cross-view fusion at linear complexity with learnable view importance weighting and token-wise gating, letting each view selectively incorporate fine-grained evidence from other views at $\mathcal{O}(N)$ cost. The Object-Guided Attention (OGA) module captures global context by aggregating class tokens from all views into a single object-level representation and broadcasting it back to patch tokens via temperature-scaled sigmoid gating, replacing the original patch representations rather than adding a residual to preserve the reconstruction gap. Experiments on Real-IAD and MANTA-Tiny show that GLAD outperforms state-of-the-art methods across sample-, image-, and pixel-level metrics, confirming that principled information restriction is key to multi-view anomaly reasoning.

InstructFLIP: Exploring Unified Vision-Language Model for Face Anti-spoofing

Face anti-spoofing (FAS) aims to construct a robust system that can withstand diverse attacks. While recent efforts have concentrated mainly on cross-domain generalization, two significant challenges persist: limited semantic understanding of attack types and training redundancy across domains. We address the first by integrating vision-language models (VLMs) to enhance the perception of visual input. For the second challenge, we employ a meta-domain strategy to learn a unified model that generalizes well across multiple domains. Our proposed InstructFLIP is a novel instruction-tuned framework that leverages VLMs to enhance generalization via textual guidance trained solely on a single domain. At its core, InstructFLIP explicitly decouples instructions into content and style components, where content-based instructions focus on the essential semantics of spoofing, and style-based instructions consider variations related to the environment and camera characteristics. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of InstructFLIP by outperforming SOTA models in accuracy and substantially reducing training redundancy across diverse domains in FAS.

MonoTAKD: Teaching Assistant Knowledge Distillation for Monocular 3D Object Detection

Monocular 3D object detection (Mono3D) holds noteworthy promise for autonomous driving applications owing to the cost-effectiveness and rich visual context of monocular camera sensors. However, depth ambiguity poses a significant challenge, as it requires extracting precise 3D scene geometry from a single image, resulting in suboptimal performance when transferring knowledge from a LiDAR-based teacher model to a camera-based student model. To facilitate effective distillation, we introduce Monocular Teaching Assistant Knowledge Distillation (MonoTAKD), which proposes a camera-based teaching assistant (TA) model to transfer robust 3D visual knowledge to the student model, leveraging the smaller feature representation gap. Additionally, we define 3D spatial cues as residual features that capture the differences between the teacher and the TA models. We then leverage these cues to improve the student model's 3D perception capabilities. Experimental results show that our MonoTAKD achieves state-of-the-art performance on the KITTI3D dataset. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance on nuScenes and KITTI raw datasets to demonstrate the generalization of our model to multi-view 3D and unsupervised data settings. Our code is available at https://github.com/hoiliu-0801/MonoTAKD.

ReCorD: Reasoning and Correcting Diffusion for HOI Generation

Diffusion models revolutionize image generation by leveraging natural language to guide the creation of multimedia content. Despite significant advancements in such generative models, challenges persist in depicting detailed human-object interactions, especially regarding pose and object placement accuracy. We introduce a training-free method named Reasoning and Correcting Diffusion (ReCorD) to address these challenges. Our model couples Latent Diffusion Models with Visual Language Models to refine the generation process, ensuring precise depictions of HOIs. We propose an interaction-aware reasoning module to improve the interpretation of the interaction, along with an interaction correcting module to refine the output image for more precise HOI generation delicately. Through a meticulous process of pose selection and object positioning, ReCorD achieves superior fidelity in generated images while efficiently reducing computational requirements. We conduct comprehensive experiments on three benchmarks to demonstrate the significant progress in solving text-to-image generation tasks, showcasing ReCorD's ability to render complex interactions accurately by outperforming existing methods in HOI classification score, as well as FID and Verb CLIP-Score.
