Prefill-Time Intervention (PTI) reduces hallucinations in large vision-language models by applying a one-time modality-aware steering correction to the initial KV cache at the prefill stage rather than during autoregressive decoding.
CAST reduces object hallucination in LVLMs by 6.03% on average across five models and five benchmarks by identifying caption-sensitive attention heads and applying optimized steering directions to their outputs, with negligible added inference cost.
OSCAR exploits the generative-discriminative gap in LVLMs to build online preference data with MCTS and dual-granularity rewards for DPO-based calibration, claiming SOTA hallucination reduction and improved multimodal performance.
MLLMs ignore dial state geometry and cluster by appearance, causing inconsistency under variations; TriSCA's state-distance alignment, metadata supervision, and objective alignment improve robustness on clock and gauge benchmarks.
ReflectCAP distills model-specific hallucination and oversight patterns into Structured Reflection Notes that steer LVLMs toward more factual and complete image captions, reaching the Pareto frontier on factuality-coverage trade-offs.
InternVL 2.5 is the first open-source MLLM to surpass 70% on the MMMU benchmark via model, data, and test-time scaling, with a 3.7-point gain from chain-of-thought reasoning.
MME is a manually annotated benchmark evaluating MLLMs on perception and cognition across 14 subtasks to avoid data leakage and support fair model comparisons.
A self-captioning method using a Multimodal Interaction Gate amplifies redundant interactions to reduce visual-induced errors by 38.3% and improve consistency by 16.8% in vision-language models.
Multimodal reasoning models hallucinate at high-entropy cognitive bifurcation points due to loss of visual semantic anchoring, and the V-STAR training paradigm with HVAR rewards and FRM reflection mitigates this by reinforcing visual attention.
MESA reduces hallucinations in LVLMs via controlled selective latent intervention that preserves the original token distribution.
LLaVA-OneVision is the first single open LMM to simultaneously achieve strong performance in single-image, multi-image, and video scenarios with cross-scenario transfer capabilities.
MiniCPM-Llama3-V 2.5 delivers GPT-4V-level multimodal performance on phones through architecture, pretraining, and alignment optimizations.
The survey organizes causes of hallucinations in MLLMs, reviews evaluation benchmarks and metrics, and outlines mitigation approaches plus open questions.
InternVL scales a vision model to 6B parameters and aligns it with LLMs using web data to achieve state-of-the-art results on 32 visual-linguistic benchmarks.
The paper surveys hallucination in LLMs with an innovative taxonomy, factors, detection methods, benchmarks, mitigation strategies, and open research directions.
VLMs fine-tuned on a consistency-probed Visual-Idk dataset via SFT and preference optimization raise truthful rate from 57.9% to 67.3% and show internal evidence of genuine boundary recognition.
VideoLLaMA3 uses a vision-centric training paradigm and token-reduction design to reach competitive results on image and video benchmarks.
InternVL 1.5 narrows the performance gap to proprietary multimodal models via a stronger transferable vision encoder, dynamic high-resolution tiling, and curated English-Chinese training data.
This survey reviews the definition, symptoms, evaluation benchmarks, root causes, and mitigation methods for hallucinations in large vision-language models.
