Mitigating Object Hallucinations in LVLMs via Attention Imbalance Rectification

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.

Fine-Grained Multi Image Object Hallucination Benchmark

The paper introduces MIOH, a fine‑grained benchmark for evaluating object hallucination in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) across multiple images. It assesses hallucination through four tasks—existence, counting, attribute, position—using three reasoning patterns (comprehensive, comparative, selective) and three adversarial pressures (visual context scale, perceptual difficulty, contextual bias). Evaluation of 29 models, including GPT‑5 and Gemini‑2.5‑Pro, shows distinct failure patterns, indicating that hallucination arises from integration‑stage limitations rather than just perceptual errors.

When Language Overwrites Vision: Over-Alignment and Geometric Debiasing in Vision-Language Models

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.
