Graph Laplacian for Image Anomaly Detection
Reed-Xiaoli detector (RXD) is recognized as the benchmark algorithm for image
anomaly detection; however, it presents known limitations, namely the
dependence over the image following a multivariate Gaussian model, the
estimation and inversion of a high-dimensional covariance matrix, and the
inability to effectively include spatial awareness in its evaluation. In this
work, a novel graph-based solution to the image anomaly detection problem is
proposed; leveraging the graph Fourier transform, we are able to overcome some
of RXD's limitations while reducing computational cost at the same time. Tests
over both hyperspectral and medical images, using both synthetic and real
anomalies, prove the proposed technique is able to obtain significant gains
over performance by other algorithms in the state of the art.Comment: Published in Machine Vision and Applications (Springer
