Large-scale Vision-Language Models like CLIP have demonstrated impressive open-set localization capabilities at the image level. However, adapting this capability to pixel-level dense prediction poses challenges due to global feature biases. In this paper, we introduce CLIPix, a simple yet effective framework that repurposes CLIP to perform pixel-level localization. By tracing back CLIP's classification process, CLIPix identifies object-specific attentive regions and repurposes them as pixel-level localization cues. To address noise introduced by global biases, we propose a Noise-Resistant Correction strategy, refining these cues for more precise segmentation. Additionally, we introduce a Localization Embedding strategy to integrate both localization and enriched detail information, enabling accurate, high-resolution segmentation. Our approach preserves CLIP's generalization strength and unlocks its potential for segmenting arbitrary objects. Extensive experiments on the PASCAL and COCO datasets demonstrate that CLIPix achieves state-of-the-art performance, underscoring its effectiveness.
Modern vision-language models (VLMs) have significantly improved image generation and editing capabilities, making pixel-level image tampering detection increasingly important yet challenging under cross-model and out-of-distribution shifts. This work studies domain generalizatio…
Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have recently shown strong potential for industrial anomaly detection (IAD) by providing image-level anomaly judgments and interpretable defect reasoning. However, current LVLM-based IAD methods still struggle to produce precise pixel-level an…
Industrial anomaly detection aims to identify and localize defective regions without relying on exhaustive annotations of all possible defect types. Although recent unsupervised methods have achieved strong performance, most are primarily designed for single-class settings and of…
Industrial inspection requires more than binary anomaly detection: a practical system should determine whether an anomaly exists, localize the defective region, identify the defect type, and provide interpretable visual evidence. Existing CLIP-based methods detect and localize an…
While various works address reflective symmetry understanding in 3D data and images, pixel-level semantic left-right prediction of in-the-wild images remains challenging, due to certain difficulties including the lack of 3D information, occlusion, object pose variation, partialit…
Event detection tasks in videos, the most important aspect of video surveillance, aim to detect events either at the pixel-level, frame-level, or clip-level. Plenty of methods intended for event detection in different environments, for various applications, and within different a…
