A GAN-based anomaly detector using multi-feature fusion and selection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In numerous applications, abnormal samples are hard to collect, limiting the use of well-established supervised learning methods. GAN-based models which trained in an unsupervised and single feature set manner have been proposed by simultaneously considering the reconstruction error and the latent space deviation between normal samples and abnormal samples. However, the ability to capture the input distribution of each feature set is limited. Hence, we propose an unsupervised and multi-feature model, Wave-GANomaly, trained only on normal samples to learn the distribution of these normal samples. The model predicts whether a given sample is normal or not by its deviation from the distribution of normal samples. Wave-GANomaly fuses and selects from the wave-based features extracted by the WaveBlock module and the convolution-based features. The WaveBlock has proven to efficiently improve the performance on image classification, object detection, and segmentation tasks. As a result, Wave-GANomaly achieves the best average area under the curve (AUC) on the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR)-10 dataset (94.3%) and on the Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) dataset (91.0%) when compared to existing state-of-the-art anomaly detectors such as GANomaly, Skip-GANomaly, and the skip-attention generative adversarial network (SAGAN). We further verify our method by the self-curated real-world dataset, the result show that our method is better than GANomaly which only use single feature set for training the model.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
