Researchers have developed a novel framework to enhance zero-shot anomaly detection by integrating auxiliary modalities with RGB images. This plug-and-play system uses auxiliary data, such as depth or surface information, as conditional signals to refine RGB features rather than merging them into a shared semantic space. This approach preserves the integrity of text-aligned anomaly semantics from foundation models while improving detection capabilities for geometric or surface-level anomalies. Experiments on MVTec 3D-AD and Eyecandies datasets show significant performance gains across various RGB-based detectors. AI
