FaithEyes framework improves VLM tool use faithfulness

Researchers have introduced FaithEyes, a novel multi-agent framework designed to enhance the faithfulness of tool use in agentic vision-language models (VLMs). These models often struggle with tool calls that are irrelevant to the task, leading to inaccurate reasoning despite correct final answers. FaithEyes addresses this by having the VLM itself judge the usefulness of each process image generated by tool calls. This judgment is integrated into the reasoning context and used to scale tool rewards, thereby mitigating reward hacking. The framework ensures train-test consistency by employing the model as a subagent for self-judging, and has demonstrated competitive accuracy on visual perception and reasoning benchmarks while significantly improving tool faithfulness.

    FaithEyes: Towards Faithful Tool Use via Multi-Agent Process-Image Verification

    arXiv:2607.28225v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic vision-language models (VLMs), which interleave textual reasoning with explicit tool calls such as cropping and code-based image manipulation, have emerged as a compelling paradigm for reliable and interpretable multimodal r…
