Modern text-to-image models excel in visual fidelity and prompt adherence. However, this strict adherence comes at the cost of diversity: generated samples tend to collapse into a single visual interpretation.

The paper argues that stochastic decoding, common in large language models, is not ideal for Visual Question Answering (VQA) because VQA is a closed‑ended task with head‑heavy answer distributions and epistemic uncertainty. The authors formalize how model calibration relates to predictive accuracy and identify conditions under which greedy decoding is optimal. Experiments across multiple benchmarks show greedy decoding outperforms stochastic sampling, and a new Greedy Decoding for Reasoning Models further improves multimodal reasoning performance.
