What do we learn? Debunking the Myth of Unsupervised Outlier Detection

no code implementations8 Jun 2022 Cosmin I. Bercea, Daniel Rueckert, Julia A. Schnabel

We have found that state-of-the-art (SOTA) AEs are either unable to constrain the latent manifold and allow reconstruction of abnormal patterns, or they are failing to accurately restore the inputs from their latent distribution, resulting in blurred or misaligned reconstructions.
