Therefore, image anomaly detection on industrial products is of significant importance and has become a research hotspot. Industrial manufacturers are also gradually intellectualizing how product parts may have flaws and defects, and that industrial product image anomalies have characteristics such as category diversity, sample scarcity, and the uncertainty of change; thus, a higher requirement for image anomaly detection has arisen. For this reason, we proposed a method of industrial image anomaly detection that applies a generative adversarial network based on attention feature fusion. For the purpose of capturing richer image channel features, we added attention feature fusion based on an encoder and decoder, and through skip-connection, this performs the feature fusion for the encode and decode vectors in the same dimension. During training, we used random cut-paste image augmentation, which improved the diversity of the datasets. We displayed the results of a wide experiment, which was based on the public industrial detection MVTec dataset. The experiment illustrated that the method we proposed has a higher level AUC and the overall result was increased by 4.1%. Finally, we realized the pixel level anomaly localization of the industrial dataset, which illustrates the feasibility and effectiveness of this method<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23010355","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,30]],"date-time":"2022-12-30T03:19:46Z","timestamp":1672370386000},"page":"355","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Anomaly Detection of GAN Industrial Image Based on Attention Feature Fusion"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Lin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, China West Normal University, Nanchong 637000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yang","family":"Dai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, China West Normal University, Nanchong 637000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fuyou","family":"Fan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data, Yibin University, Yibin 644000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chunlin","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, China West Normal University, Nanchong 637000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1145\/3439950","article-title":"Deep Learning for Anomaly Detection: A Review","volume":"54","author":"Pang","year":"2021","journal-title":"ACM Comput.
