arXiv:2606. 29431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the impressive capabilities of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), they remain susceptible to hallucination, generating content inconsistent with the input image.
While Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) achieve remarkable success, hallucinations remain a significant barrier to their reliable deployment. Recent studies primarily attribute these issues to cros...

ReWEIGH the Evidence is a training‑free decoding technique that calibrates token‑level ordinal visual evidence to reduce hallucinations in large vision‑language models. It aggregates vocabulary ranks across visual positions, compares candidates to a token‑specific reference derived from unlabeled images, and applies a bounded penalty only when evidence falls below this reference. Experiments on four 7B backbones show up to a 21.3% reduction in hallucinated object mentions while largely preserving or improving descriptive and general performance, with minimal added latency.
The paper introduces the concept of multi-view hallucination (MVH), where large vision-language models produce incorrect answers when processing images from multiple viewpoints. It presents MVH-Bench, a benchmark of 4.8k question-answer pairs that target cross-instance and cross-view hallucinations, and shows that MVH is common across recent models. The authors propose Reference Shift Contrastive Decoding (RSCD), a training-free decoding method that mitigates visual interference, achieving significant performance gains on MVH-Bench with LLaVA-OneVision and Qwen2.5-VL.

The paper introduces CADMP, a lightweight framework for detecting object hallucinations in large vision‑language models. CADMP measures cross‑modal attention drift between adjacent layers and verifies predictions by masking visually relevant regions, combining these signals to identify hallucinated outputs. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that CADMP achieves competitive detection performance, and ablation studies confirm the complementary roles of attention drift and mask‑based verification.
The paper introduces Dynamic Alignment Compensation (DAC), a training‑free inference‑time technique designed to reduce hallucinations in Large Vision‑Language Models (LVLMs). DAC monitors cross‑modal representation drift across decoder layers and generation steps, applying lightweight residual compensation through Layer‑wise Semantic Compensation and Sequential Semantic Correction. Experiments on nine multimodal benchmarks across various LVLM backbones demonstrate that DAC consistently lowers hallucination rates while preserving overall performance.

arXiv:2603. 24058v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Object hallucination in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) severely compromises their reliability in real-world applications, posing a critical barrier to their deployment in high-stakes scenarios such as autonomous driving and medical image analysis.
