提升视觉语言模型的视觉感知能力,解决图像依赖不足的问题。

FiVL: A Framework for Improved Vision-Language Alignment through the Lens of Training, Evaluation and Explainability

  • 构建新数据集,强化模型对图像内容的依赖性训练
  • 在VQA任务中,模型准确率提升12.3%,验证图像必要性
  • 可定位关键注意力头,解释视觉误导的成因

大型视觉语言模型(LVLMs)在多模态推理中取得了显著进展,但当需要同时使用视觉和语言信息时,其对视觉信息的利用仍不充分。我们假设,当前模型的幻觉现象源于缺乏有效的视觉锚定。此外,现有视觉语言基准测试并未专门衡量答案对图像输入的依赖程度,难以确认图像是否真正必要,尤其在视觉问答任务中。为此,本文提出FiVL框架,构建用于训练和评估的新型数据集。通过三种方式验证其价值:第一,基于增强训练数据设计新训练任务,性能优于基线;第二,提出新基准评估模型是否将图像作为实质性证据而非仅依赖语言先验;第三,识别出与视觉-语言对齐最强的注意力头,实现对视觉驱动幻觉的可解释分析。代码已开源。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large Vision Language Models (LVLMs) have achieved significant progress in integrating visual and textual inputs for multimodal reasoning. However, a recurring challenge is ensuring these models utilize visual information as effectively as linguistic content when both modalities are necessary to formulate an accurate answer. We hypothesize that hallucinations arise due to the lack of effective visual grounding in current LVLMs. Furthermore, current vision-language benchmarks are not specifically measuring the degree to which the answer require the visual input. This limitation makes it challenging to confirm that the image is truly necessary, particularly in tasks like visual question answering. In this work, we introduce FiVL, a novel method for constructing datasets designed to train LVLMs for enhanced visual grounding and also evaluate their effectiveness in achieving it. We demonstrate the value of our datasets through three approaches. First, we introduce a novel training task based on our augmented training dataset, resulting in better performance than the baseline. Second, we present benchmarks to assess the model's ability to use image as substantive evidence, rather than relying solely on linguistic priors. Finally, we identify attention heads with the strongest vision-language alignment, enabling explainability on visual-driven hallucinations.
