arXiv:2609.09895v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Video-language models and video agents can produce hallucinations that conflict with spatiotemporal evidence. Existing benchmarks mainly evaluate model...
The paper examines how hallucinations arise in multi-stage video‑understanding agents by aligning existing benchmarks with the stages of temporal grounding, visual observation, and reasoning. It introduces a causal stage‑intervention protocol that isolates each stage while keeping the downstream task constant, revealing that grounding errors dominate downstream hallucinations and that correct region location matters more than precise temporal overlap. The study also shows that current benchmark scores poorly predict causal sensitivity and can fail under distribution shift, advocating for stage‑aware evaluation methods.
The article surveys hallucination issues in Large Vision‑Language Models (LVLMs), a type of multimodal foundation model that blends visual data with large language models. It categorizes hallucination causes into model architecture and data quality, presents a taxonomy of mitigation strategies, and critically evaluates existing evaluation benchmarks from both discriminative and generative viewpoints. The survey also outlines open challenges and future research directions to improve LVLM reliability and trustworthiness.

OmniHallu is a unified framework for detecting hallucinations in multimodal large language models across both comprehension and generation tasks involving image, video, and audio modalities. It introduces OmniHallu-Bench, a 10,000-sample benchmark with claim-level human annotations for six cross-modal tasks (I2T, V2T, A2T, T2I, T2V, T2A). The system uses a multi‑agent architecture that decomposes outputs into atomic claims, verifies them with modality‑specific experts, and aggregates evidence through structured reasoning, while a preference‑optimized verifier reduces expert calls by 66% with minimal performance loss.
