Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting and correcting anomalies include predicting normal behavior of a monitored system based on training data that includes only sensor data collected during normal behavior of the monitored system. The predicted normal behavior is compared to recent sensor data to determine that the monitored system is behaving abnormally. A corrective action is performed responsive to the abnormal behavior to correct the abnormal behavior.

Abstract: A false alarm reduction system and method are provided for reducing false alarms in an automatic defect detection system. The false alarm reduction system includes a defect detection system, generating a list of image boxes marking detected potential defects in an input image. The false alarm reduction system further includes a feature extractor, transforming each of the image boxes in the list into a respective set of numerical features. The false alarm reduction system also includes a classifier, computing as a classification outcome for the each of the image boxes whether the detected potential defect is a true defect or a false alarm responsive to the respective set of numerical features for each of the image boxes.

Abstract: A false alarm reduction system is provided that includes a processor cropping each input image at randomly chosen positions to form cropped images of a same size at different scales in different contexts. The system further includes a CONDA-GMM, having a first and a second conditional deep autoencoder for respectively (i) taking each cropped image without a respective center block as input for measuring a discrepancy between a reconstructed and a target center block, and (ii) taking an entirety of cropped images with the target center block. The CONDA-GMM constructs density estimates based on reconstruction error features and low-dimensional embedding representations derived from image encodings. The processor determines an anomaly existence based on a prediction of a likelihood of the anomaly existing in a framework of a CGMM, given the context being a representation of the cropped image with the center block removed and having a discrepancy above a threshold.
