arXiv:2603. 18373v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: When VLMs answer correctly, do they genuinely rely on visual information?
arXiv:2606. 06890v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) frequently rely on language priors, producing confident answers that are weakly grounded in visual evidence.
arXiv:2606. 17389v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal Foundation Models are increasingly used as reasoning agents, making reliability, knowing when a model may hallucinate, critical.
arXiv:2608. 13167v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When visual evidence is occluded or chaotic, models should abstain.
Latent visual reasoning (LVR) inserts supervised latent tokens between perception and answer generation in vision-language models (VLMs). The field uses alignment between these latents and their visual targets, i.
arXiv:2605. 08245v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) increasingly power high-stakes applications, from medical imaging to autonomous systems, yet they routinely hallucinate, confidently describing content not present in the input.
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.
arXiv:2606. 27596v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) exhibit sophisticated reasoning but remain susceptible to object hallucination.
arXiv:2608. 08021v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) should answer from concrete image evidence rather than language priors, dataset shortcuts, or irrelevant visual context.
arXiv:2606. 13870v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) can answer image-based questions confidently, and often correctly, even when no image is provided.
arXiv:2606. 00148v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) often know the rule but pick the wrong answer: on abstract visual reasoning (AVR) tasks, a model can describe what it sees and name the underlying pattern, yet still fail to choose the matching candidate.
arXiv:2607. 24354v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatic prompt optimization (APO) has been widely adopted to adapt vision-language models (VLMs) to downstream tasks without weight updates, yielding promising results.
arXiv:2606. 23763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent work typically assesses vision--language consistency using attention distributions of answer-side tokens.
