arXiv:2605. 16411v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Hallucination remains a fundamental challenge in vision-language models (VLMs), where autoregressive generation may produce linguistically plausible yet physically inconsistent or visually ungrounded responses due to likelihood maximization under joint probabilistic modeling.

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 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.
