arXiv:2603.29183v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Open-set anomaly detection (OSAD) is an emerging paradigm designed to utilize limited labeled data from anomaly classes seen in training to identify both seen and unseen anomalies during testing. Current approaches rely on simple augmentation methods to generate pseudo anomalies that replicate unseen anomalies. Despite being promising in image data, these methods are found to be ineffective in time series data due to the failure to preserve its sequential nature, resulting in trivial or unrealistic anomaly patterns. They are further plagued when the training data is contaminated with unlabeled anomalies. This work introduces $\textbf{IMPACT}$, a novel framework that leverages $\underline{\textbf{i}}$nfluence $\underline{\textbf{m}}$odeling for o$\underline{\textbf{p}}$en-set time series $\underline{\textbf{a}}$nomaly dete$\underline{\textbf{ct}}$ion, to tackle these challenges. The key insight is to $\textbf{i)}$ learn an influence function that can accurately estimate the impact of individual training samples on the modeling, and then $\textbf{ii)}$ leverage these influence scores to generate semantically divergent yet realistic unseen anomalies for time series while repurposing high-influential samples as supervised anomalies for anomaly decontamination. Extensive experiments show that IMPACT significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods, showing superior accuracy under varying OSAD settings and contamination rates.

arXiv:2603.12581v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although diffusion models have achieved remarkable progress in multi-modal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) translation tasks, existing methods still tend to suffer from anatomical inconsistencies or degraded texture details when handling arbitrary missing-modality scenarios. To address these issues, we propose a latent diffusion-based multi-modal MRI translation framework, termed MSG-LDM. By leveraging the available modalities, the proposed method infers complete structural information, which preserves reliable boundary details. Specifically, we introduce a style--structure disentanglement mechanism in the latent space, which explicitly separates modality-specific style features from shared structural representations, and jointly models low-frequency anatomical layouts and high-frequency boundary details in a multi-scale feature space. During the structure disentanglement stage, high-frequency structural information is explicitly incorporated to enhance feature representations, guiding the model to focus on fine-grained structural cues while learning modality-invariant low-frequency anatomical representations. Furthermore, to reduce interference from modality-specific styles and improve the stability of structure representations, we design a style consistency loss and a structure-aware loss. Extensive experiments on the BraTS2020 and WMH datasets demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms existing MRI synthesis approaches, particularly in reconstructing complete structures.
