The paper introduces AIMS (Adaptive Information Multi-source Steering), a lightweight, training‑free framework that dynamically balances visual, prefilled textual, and generated contexts during decoding to reduce hallucinations in Large Vision‑Language Models (LVLMs). By constructing compact prototypes for each context domain and estimating their affinities with the current query, AIMS assigns head‑wise steering weights that guide adaptive context integration without extra training or forward passes. Experiments across multiple LVLMs and decoding strategies show that AIMS effectively mitigates object hallucination while preserving general multimodal performance.

RelCheck is a training‑free post‑hoc correction pipeline that addresses relational hallucinations in multimodal large language models. It augments object‑level visual grounding with two forms of relational evidence—learned scene‑graph triples from RelTR and deterministic spatial predicates derived from bounding‑box geometry—forming a three‑layer visual knowledge base. When applied to LLaVA v1 13B, RelCheck improves the overall MME hallucination score from 585.0 to 630.0, with the most significant gain on spatial position accuracy.
