Odd-One-Out: Anomaly Detection by Comparing with Neighbors
Ankan Bhunia, Changjian Li, Hakan Bilen
This paper introduces a novel anomaly detection (AD) problem that focuses on identifying `odd-looking' objects relative to the other instances in a given scene. In contrast to the traditional AD benchmarks, anomalies in our task are scene-specific, defined by the regular instances that make up the majority. Since object instances may be only partly visible from a single viewpoint, our setting employs multiple views of each scene as input. To provide a testbed for future research in this task, we introduce two benchmarks, ToysAD-8K and PartsAD-15K. We propose a novel method that constructs 3D object-centric representations from multiple 2D views for each instance and detects the anomalous ones through a cross-instance comparison. We rigorously analyze our method quantitatively and qualitatively on the presented benchmarks.
