Visual Anomaly Detection via Dual-Attention Transformer and Discriminative Flow

원문 초록

In this paper, we introduce the novel state-of-the-art Dual-attention Transformer and Discriminative Flow (DADF) framework for visual anomaly detection. Based on only normal knowledge, visual anomaly detection has wide applications in industrial scenarios and has attracted significant attention. However, most existing methods fail to meet the requirements. In contrast, the proposed DTDF presents a new paradigm: it firstly leverages a pre-trained network to acquire multi-scale prior embeddings, followed by the development of a vision Transformer with dual attention mechanisms, namely self-attention and memorial-attention, to achieve two-level reconstruction for prior embeddings with the sequential and normality association. Additionally, we propose using normalizing flow to establish discriminative likelihood for the joint distribution of prior and reconstructions at each scale. The DADF achieves 98.3/98.4 of image/pixel AUROC on Mvtec AD; 83.7 of image AUROC and 67.4 of pixel sPRO on Mvtec LOCO AD benchmarks, demonstrating the effectiveness of our proposed approach.
