Contrastive Augmented Transformer with Domain-specific Enhancement for Robust Multi-scenario Metal Surface Defect Detection

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2606.01962v1 Announce Type: new Metal surface defect detection is critical for maintaining product quality in industrial manufacturing. However, it faces significant challenges, including limited annotated data, difficulty in identifying subtle multi-scale defects, and poor generalization across diverse scenarios. To address these issues, this paper proposes a novel Contrastive Augmented Transformer (CAT) framework for robust defect detection.
