论文摘要
基于密度的分布（OOD）检测最近显示了检测OOD图像的任务不可靠。基于各种密度比的方法具有良好的经验性能，但是方法通常缺乏原则性的概率建模解释。在这项工作中，我们建议在建立基于能量的模型并采用不同基础分布的新框架下统一基于密度比的方法。在我们的框架下，密度比可以看作是隐式语义分布的非均衡密度。此外，我们建议通过类比率估计直接估计数据样本的密度比。与最近的工作相比，我们报告了有关OOD图像问题的竞争结果，这些工作需要对任务进行深层生成模型的培训。我们的方法为解决OOD检测问题提供了简单而有效的途径。
Density-based Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection has recently been shown unreliable for the task of detecting OOD images. Various density ratio based approaches achieve good empirical performance, however methods typically lack a principled probabilistic modelling explanation. In this work, we propose to unify density ratio based methods under a novel framework that builds energy-based models and employs differing base distributions. Under our framework, the density ratio can be viewed as the unnormalized density of an implicit semantic distribution. Further, we propose to directly estimate the density ratio of a data sample through class ratio estimation. We report competitive results on OOD image problems in comparison with recent work that alternatively requires training of deep generative models for the task. Our approach enables a simple and yet effective path towards solving the OOD detection problem.
