通过对抗性微调,让视觉语言模型更依赖图像而非先验知识,减少幻觉。

Look Closer! An Adversarial Parametric Editing Framework for Hallucination Mitigation in VLMs

  • 构建正负样本数据集,识别易产生幻觉的参数区域。
  • 用对抗提示强制模型优先关注视觉特征,减少语言先验干扰。
  • 在生成与判别任务中均显著降低幻觉率,适合模型鲁棒性研究者。

尽管视觉语言模型(VLMs)因其广泛的应用前景受到关注,但其仍存在严重幻觉问题,即输出与视觉输入不符。现有研究认为这源于模型过度依赖语言先验和视觉特征融合不足,提出启发式解码校准策略缓解,但这类非可训练方法优化潜力有限。为此,本文提出一种对抗性参数编辑框架ALEAHallu,遵循激活-定位-对抗编辑范式。首先构建包含有根基回答(正样本,聚焦视觉特征)和幻觉回答(负样本,反映语言模型先验偏差)的激活数据集;其次通过分析响应对之间的差异隐藏状态,定位易引发幻觉的参数聚类;最后使用注入对抗性调优前缀的提示进行微调,该前缀被优化以最大化视觉忽略,从而迫使模型优先采纳视觉证据。在生成与判别任务上的评估表明,ALEAHallu能显著缓解幻觉。代码已开源。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have garnered increasing attention in the AI community due to their promising practical applications, they exhibit persistent hallucination issues, generating outputs misaligned with visual inputs. Recent studies attribute these hallucinations to VLMs' over-reliance on linguistic priors and insufficient visual feature integration, proposing heuristic decoding calibration strategies to mitigate them. However, the non-trainable nature of these strategies inherently limits their optimization potential. To this end, we propose an adversarial parametric editing framework for Hallucination mitigation in VLMs, which follows an \textbf{A}ctivate-\textbf{L}ocate-\textbf{E}dit \textbf{A}dversarially paradigm. Specifically, we first construct an activation dataset that comprises grounded responses (positive samples attentively anchored in visual features) and hallucinatory responses (negative samples reflecting LLM prior bias and internal knowledge artifacts). Next, we identify critical hallucination-prone parameter clusters by analyzing differential hidden states of response pairs. Then, these clusters are fine-tuned using prompts injected with adversarial tuned prefixes that are optimized to maximize visual neglect, thereby forcing the model to prioritize visual evidence over inherent parametric biases. Evaluations on both generative and discriminative VLM tasks demonstrate the significant effectiveness of ALEAHallu in alleviating hallucinations.
