Exploring Multimodal Prompts For Unsupervised Continuous Anomaly Detection

ArXi:2603.21562v1 Announce Type: new Unsupervised Continuous Anomaly Detection (UCAD) is gaining attention for effectively addressing the catastrophic forgetting and heavy computational burden issues in traditional Unsupervised Anomaly Detection (UAD). However, existing UCAD approaches that rely solely on visual information are insufficient to capture the manifold of normality in complex scenes, thereby impeding further gains in anomaly detection accuracy. To overcome this limitation, we propose an unsupervised continual anomaly detection framework grounded in multimodal prompting.
