DeSTSeg: Segmentation Guided Denoising Student-Teacher for Anomaly Detection
Visual anomaly detection, an important problem in computer vision, is usually formulated as a one-class classification and segmentation task. The student-teacher (S-T) framework has proved to be effective in solving this challenge. However, previous works based on S-T only empirically applied constraints on normal data and fused multi-level information. In this study, we propose an …

Technical Controls, Rollout, and Edge Cases (Passwordless Authentication Series, #2)
(Editor’s Note: This is the second post in the Passwordless Authentication Series, which shares insights from our journey on enforcing FIDO2 authentication via hardware authenticators (YubiKeys) across all of Palantir. While Palantir has enforced mandatory strong multi-factor authentication for well over a decade, hardware-backed authentication using FIDO2 represents the strongest form of modern authentication available.) …
