Anomaly detection plays a pivotal role in industrial quality assurance processes, with cross-domain problems, exemplified by the model upgrade from RGB to 3D, being prevalent in real-world scenarios yet remaining systematically underexplored. To address the severe challenges posed by the extreme lack of datasets in target domain, we retain the knowledge from source models and explore a novel solution for anomaly detection through cross-domain learning, introducing HyperTrans. Targeting few-shot scenarios, HyperTrans centers around hypergraphs to model the relationship of the limited patch features and employs a perturbation-rectification-scoring architecture. The domain perturbation module injects and adapts channel-level statistical perturbations, mitigating style shifts during domain transfer. Subsequently, a residual hypergraph restoration module utilizes a cross-domain hypergraph to capture higher-order correlations in patches and align them across domains. Ultimately, with feature patterns exhibiting reduced domain shifts, an inter-domain scoring module aggregates similarity information between patches and normal patterns within the multi-domain subhypergraphs to make an integrated decision, generating multi-level anomaly predictions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that HyperTrans offers significant advantages in anomaly classification and anomaly segmentation tasks, outperforming state-of-the-art non-cross-domain methods in image-wise ROCAUC by 13%, 12%, and 15% in 1-shot, 2-shot, and 5-shot settings on MVTec3D AD.
