A novel approach is proposed in this paper to tackle logical defects in industrial settings, which are often overlooked despite their significant impact on quality control. The authors leverage knowledge distillation (KD) to generate difference maps for anomaly detection, but highlight the limitations of existing methods that can lead to false negatives. To address this issue, a simple constraint is introduced in the KD-based learning scheme of EfficientAD, a state-of-the-art baseline method. This modification improves the AUROC for MVTec LOCO AD by 1.3%, demonstrating the effectiveness of incorporating logical defects into the inspection process.

Imagine you’re working on an assembly line and need to make sure that all the parts are in the right place. Most quality control methods focus on physical defects, like dents or contaminants, but what about when things are just not quite right? For example, imagine a toy car with two wheels on the wrong side. This is called a logical defect. Researchers have been trying to come up with ways to detect these kinds of problems using computer vision, but they often miss some cases. The authors of this paper propose a new approach that can help fix this problem by adding a simple rule to an existing method. This improvement makes it better at detecting anomalies and could be useful in many different industries.
