This paper proposes a novel approach to out-of-distribution (OOD) detection in machine learning models. Traditional OOD detection methods often struggle with complex data distributions from large-scale datasets. The proposed method leverages the generative ability of diffusion models and the feature extraction capabilities of CLIP, using conditional inputs to reconstruct images after encoding them with CLIP. The difference between the original and reconstructed images serves as a signal for OOD identification. This approach does not require class-specific labeled ID data, unlike many other methods. The paper demonstrates the effectiveness of this method through extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets, achieving improved detection accuracy.

Imagine you have a super smart AI that can create new images based on what it sees. But sometimes these AIs can get tricked into thinking something is an image when it’s actually not. This paper shows how to stop this from happening by comparing the original image with one created using the same AI. It uses two special tools: CLIP, which helps the AI understand what makes an image look like an image, and a “diffusion model” that can recreate images based on these features. The difference between the two images tells us if it’s really an image or not. This new way of detecting fake images is more accurate and doesn’t need as much training data.
