VIB-Probe — LLaVA-1.5-13B, COCO

Object-hallucination probe trained on a LLaVA-1.5-13B COCO corpus, with three independent training seeds (0, 42, 1337). It is not interchangeable with the 7B release: features, geometry and thresholds are model-specific.

Corpus

10,000 COCO train2014 images split 80/20 by image: 8,000 train / 54,253 object spans and 2,000 holdout / 13,789 object spans. Captions are generated by 13B itself, so this corpus is not the 7B corpus.

Results (mean +/- SD over the three seeds)

Thresholds are selected by best F1 on the COCO validation split and then frozen. Nothing is tuned on the test holdout, AMBER, or POPE.

COCO test holdout — mention view, n=13,787, 16.19% positive

AMBER, strict zero-shot — n=2,367 rows / 977 images, 5.37% positive, COCO thresholds frozen

AMBER's object universe is the human-labelled (image, noun) set; nouns 13B mentions that carry no AMBER label are not scored (2,367 of 3,350 candidate pairs matched).

POPE-Adversarial, zero-shot — n=3,000, 18.9% positive

Validation best-F1 threshold, seeds 0 / 42 / 1337: -0.56099 / -0.16638 / -0.66744
