When Model Priors Conflict with Visual Evidence: Mitigating Commonsense-Driven Hallucinations by Selective Prior Calibration

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 29240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In vision--language models, commonsense-driven hallucination (CDH) occurs when a model's commonsense prior overrides clear visual evidence of an atypical state.

Deterministic Hallucination Detection in Medical VQA via Confidence-Evidence Bayesian Gain

arXiv:2603. 21693v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for medical Visual Question Answering (VQA), yet they remain prone to hallucinations, defined as generating responses that contradict the input image, posing serious risks in clinical settings.

Reducing Hallucination in Vision-Language Models via Stage-wise Preference Optimization under Distribution Shift

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.
