When Rule Violations Are Rare: Chimera Training for Logical Anomaly Detection

Alejandro Ascarate, Leo Lebrat, Rodrigo Santa Cruz +2

Many practical anomalies are not merely rare inputs, but violations of semantic constraints: objects co-occur in structured ways, actions imply preconditions, and events satisfy te…

Testing the Test: Score-Direction Instability in Class-Split Anomaly Detection

Alejandro Ascarate, Leo Lebrat, Rodrigo Santa Cruz +2

Within-dataset class-split evaluation is widely used as a proxy for fully unconditional out-of-distribution anomaly detection. We show that this protocol can become ill-posed when…

High-Dimensional Latents Should Be Diagnosed Through Phase Structure

Alejandro Ascarate, Leo Lebrat, Rodrigo Santa Cruz +2

We study autoencoder and variational-autoencoder latent spaces through the lens of spin-glass theory. The paper has two components. First, we formalize a latent-space spin-glass di…

VAE with Hyperspherical Coordinates: Improving Anomaly Detection from Hypervolume-Compressed Latent Space

Alejandro Ascarate, Leo Lebrat, Rodrigo Santa Cruz +2

Variational autoencoders (VAE) encode data into lower-dimensional latent vectors before decoding those vectors back to data. Once trained, one can hope to detect out-of-distributio…

First Shape, Then Meaning: Efficient Geometry and Semantics Learning for Indoor Reconstruction

Remi Chierchia, Léo Lebrat, David Ahmedt-Aristizabal +3

Neural Surface Reconstruction has become a standard methodology for indoor 3D reconstruction, with Signed Distance Functions (SDFs) proving particularly effective for representing…

In Depth We Trust: Reliable Monocular Depth Supervision for Gaussian Splatting

Wenhui Xiao, Ethan Goan, Rodrigo Santa Cruz +4

Using accurate depth priors in 3D Gaussian Splatting helps mitigate artifacts caused by sparse training data and textureless surfaces. However, acquiring accurate depth maps requir…
