Researchers have identified the "Evidence Anchoring Boundary" (EAB) within multimodal large language models, a specific layer where visual interventions are most effective at reducing hallucinations. Experiments across multiple model families showed that interventions applied before the EAB had a significantly larger impact on predictions compared to those applied after. The study also revealed that interventions can sometimes correct incorrect biases or even remove support for correct answers, leading to the development of a calibrated selective routing method that improves attribute accuracy by selectively applying interventions.
