Looking 3D: Anomaly Detection with 2D-3D Alignment

摘要

Automatic anomaly detection based on visual cues holds practical significance in various domains such as manufacturing and product quality assessment. This paper introduces a new conditional anomaly detection problem which involves identifying anomalies in a query image by comparing it to a reference shape. To address this challenge we have created a large dataset BrokenChairs-180K consisting of around 180K images with diverse anomalies geometries and textures paired with 8143 reference 3D shapes. To tackle this task we have proposed a novel transformer-based approach that explicitly learns the correspondence between the query image and reference 3D shape via feature alignment and leverages a customized attention mechanism for anomaly detection. Our approach has been rigorously evaluated through comprehensive experiments serving as a benchmark for future research in this domain.
