VID-AD: A Dataset for Image-Level Logical Anomaly Detection under Vision-Induced Distraction

Logical anomaly detection in industrial inspection remains challenging due to variations in visual appearance (e.g., background clutter, illumination shift, and blur), which often distract vision-centric detectors from identifying rule-level violations. However, existing benchmarks rarely provide controlled settings where logical states are fixed while such nuisance factors vary. To address this gap, we introduce VID-AD, a dataset for logical anomaly detection under vision-induced distraction. It comprises 10 manufacturing scenarios and five capture conditions, totaling 50 one-class tasks and 10,395 images. Each scenario is defined by two logical constraints selected from quantity, length, type, placement, and relation, with anomalies including both single-constraint and combined violations. We further propose a language-based anomaly detection framework that relies solely on text descriptions generated from normal images. Using contrastive learning with positive texts and contradiction-based negative texts synthesized from these descriptions, our method learns embeddings that capture logical attributes rather than low-level features. Extensive experiments demonstrate consistent improvements over baselines across the evaluated settings. The dataset is available at: https://github.com/nkthiroto/VID-AD.

DMP-3DAD: Cross-Category 3D Anomaly Detection via Realistic Depth Map Projection with Few Normal Samples

Cross-category anomaly detection for 3D point clouds aims to determine whether an unseen object belongs to a target category using only a few normal examples. Most existing methods rely on category-specific training, which limits their flexibility in few-shot scenarios. In this paper, we propose DMP-3DAD, a training-free framework for cross-category 3D anomaly detection based on multi-view realistic depth map projection. Specifically, by converting point clouds into a fixed set of realistic depth images, our method leverages a frozen CLIP visual encoder to extract multi-view representations and performs anomaly detection via weighted feature similarity, which does not require any fine-tuning or category-dependent adaptation. Extensive experiments on the ShapeNetPart dataset demonstrate that DMP-3DAD achieves state-of-the-art performance under few-shot setting. The results show that the proposed approach provides a simple yet effective solution for practical cross-category 3D anomaly detection.

3DKeyAD: High-Resolution 3D Point Cloud Anomaly Detection via Keypoint-Guided Point Clustering

High-resolution 3D point clouds are highly effective for detecting subtle structural anomalies in industrial inspection. However, their dense and irregular nature imposes significant challenges, including high computational cost, sensitivity to spatial misalignment, and difficulty in capturing localized structural differences. This paper introduces a registration-based anomaly detection framework that combines multi-prototype alignment with cluster-wise discrepancy analysis to enable precise 3D anomaly localization. Specifically, each test sample is first registered to multiple normal prototypes to enable direct structural comparison. To evaluate anomalies at a local level, clustering is performed over the point cloud, and similarity is computed between features from the test sample and the prototypes within each cluster. Rather than selecting cluster centroids randomly, a keypoint-guided strategy is employed, where geometrically informative points are chosen as centroids. This ensures that clusters are centered on feature-rich regions, enabling more meaningful and stable distance-based comparisons. Extensive experiments on the Real3D-AD benchmark demonstrate that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance in both object-level and point-level anomaly detection, even using only raw features.

Label-Consistent Dataset Distillation with Detector-Guided Refinement

Dataset distillation (DD) aims to generate a compact yet informative dataset that achieves performance comparable to the original dataset, thereby reducing demands on storage and computational resources. Although diffusion models have made significant progress in dataset distillation, the generated surrogate datasets often contain samples with label inconsistencies or insufficient structural detail, leading to suboptimal downstream performance. To address these issues, we propose a detector-guided dataset distillation framework that explicitly leverages a pre-trained detector to identify and refine anomalous synthetic samples, thereby ensuring label consistency and improving image quality. Specifically, a detector model trained on the original dataset is employed to identify anomalous images exhibiting label mismatches or low classification confidence. For each defective image, multiple candidates are generated using a pre-trained diffusion model conditioned on the corresponding image prototype and label. The optimal candidate is then selected by jointly considering the detector's confidence score and dissimilarity to existing qualified synthetic samples, thereby ensuring both label accuracy and intra-class diversity. Experimental results demonstrate that our method can synthesize high-quality representative images with richer details, achieving state-of-the-art performance on the validation set.

Incremental Pseudo-Labeling for Black-Box Unsupervised Domain Adaptation

Black-Box unsupervised domain adaptation (BBUDA) learns knowledge only with the prediction of target data from the source model without access to the source data and source model, which attempts to alleviate concerns about the privacy and security of data. However, incorrect pseudo-labels are prevalent in the prediction generated by the source model due to the cross-domain discrepancy, which may substantially degrade the performance of the target model. To address this problem, we propose a novel approach that incrementally selects high-confidence pseudo-labels to improve the generalization ability of the target model. Specifically, we first generate pseudo-labels using a source model and train a crude target model by a vanilla BBUDA method. Second, we iteratively select high-confidence data from the low-confidence data pool by thresholding the softmax probabilities, prototype labels, and intra-class similarity. Then, we iteratively train a stronger target network based on the crude target model to correct the wrongly labeled samples to improve the accuracy of the pseudo-label. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art black-box unsupervised domain adaptation performance on three benchmark datasets.
