## VideoHallucer

### Introduction

Recent advancements in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have extended their capabilities to video understanding. Yet, these models are often plagued by "hallucinations", where irrelevant or nonsensical content is generated, deviating from the actual video context. This work introduces VideoHallucer, the **first comprehensive benchmark for hallucination detection in large video-language models (LVLMs)**. VideoHallucer categorizes hallucinations into two main types: intrinsic and extrinsic, offering further subcategories for detailed analysis, including object-relation, temporal, semantic detail, extrinsic factual, and extrinsic non-factual hallucinations. We adopt an adversarial binary VideoQA method for comprehensive evaluation, where pairs of basic and hallucinated questions are crafted strategically. By evaluating eleven LVLMs on VideoHallucer, we reveal that (i) the majority of current models exhibit significant issues with hallucinations; (ii) while scaling datasets and parameters improves models' ability to detect basic visual cues and counterfactuals, it provides limited benefit for detecting extrinsic factual hallucinations; (iii) existing models are more adept at detecting facts than identifying hallucinations. As a byproduct, these analyses further instruct the development of our self-PEP framework, achieving an average of 5.38\% improvement in hallucination resistance across all model architectures.

### Statistics

| | Object-Relation Hallucination | Temporal Hallucination | Semantic Detail Hallucination | External Factual Hallucination | External Nonfactual Hallucination |
| ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- |
|Questions | 400 | 376* | 400 | 400 | 400 |
|Videos | 183 | 165 | 400| 200 | 200 |

The Extrinsic Factual Hallucination and Extrinsic Non-factual Hallucination share same videos and basic questions

\* In October 2025 we removed some duplicate questions from the Temporal Hallucination task

### Data

You can download the videohallucer from [huggingface](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ColorfulAI/VideoHallucer), containing both json and videos.
