Abstract: Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is a crucial task for ensuring the reliability and robustness of machine learning models. Recent works have shown that generative models often assign high confidence scores to OOD samples, indicating that they fail to capture the semantic information of the data. To tackle this problem, we take advantage of sample repairing and propose a novel OOD detection framework, namely SR-OOD. Our framework leverages the idea that repairing an OOD sample can reveal its semantic inconsistency with the in-distribution data. Specifically, our framework consists of two components: a sample repairing module and a detection module. The sample repairing module applies erosion to an input sample and uses a generative adversarial network to repair it. The detection module then determines whether the input sample is OOD using a distance metric. Our framework does not require any additional data or label information for detection, making it applicable to various scenarios. We conduct extensive experiments on three image datasets: CIFAR-10, CelebA, and Pokemon, and demonstrate that our approach achieves superior performance over the state-of-the-art generative methods in OOD detection.
