Sind #Holzschneidbretter wirklich unhygienisch? 🪵 Oder sind sie doch die bessere Wahl gegenüber Kunststoffschneidbrettern? Holz setzt zumindest keine Mikroplastikpartikel frei und ist bei richtiger Pflege langlebig und sicher. Wie reinigt man Holzschneidbretter optimal und sorgt für eine hygienische Lagerung? Tipps für den Umgang mit Holzschneidbrettern dazu im Beitrag. 🌿🍴

Seeing Far and Clearly: Mitigating Hallucinations in MLLMs with Attention Causal Decoding
Recent advancements in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have significantly improved performance in visual question answering. However, they often suffer from hallucinations. In this work, hallucinations are categorized into two main types: initial hallucinations and snowball hallucinations. We argue that adequate contextual information can be extracted directly from the token interaction process. Inspired by causal inference in the decoding strategy, we propose to leverage causal masks …

Reducing Object Hallucination in Large Audio-Language Models via Audio-Aware Decoding
Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) can take audio and text as the inputs and answer questions about the audio. While prior LALMs have shown strong performance on standard benchmarks, there has been alarming evidence that LALMs can hallucinate what is presented in the audio. To mitigate the hallucination of LALMs, we introduce Audio-Aware Decoding (AAD), a lightweight inference-time strategy that uses contrastive decoding to compare the token prediction logits with and without the audio context…

Stara istuttaa 85 000 kesäkukkaa – Stadin kesäkukkien suunnittelija vaihtuu yli 30 vuoden jälkeen
Helsingin kesä on jälleen täynnä kukkaloistoa. Helsingin kaupungin rakentamispalveluliikelaitos Stara on kasvattanut Kaupunginpuutarhalla 155 000 kausikasvia, joista 94 000 on kesäkukkia. Kaupunkikuvasta tutuiksi tulleita erilaisia suuria kukka-astioita on noin 900, ja ne sijoitetaan ympäri Helsinkiä. Kaiken kaikkiaan Helsingissä kesäkukkia istutetaan yli 180 kohteeseen. Stara vastaa 85 000 kesäkukan istuttamisesta. Istutuksia tehdään Staran hoitamille alueille kukkaryhmiin ja -asti…

UK Court Warns Lawyers Can Be Prosecuted Over A.I. Tools That ‘Hallucinate’ Fake Material
A senior judge said on Friday that lawyers could be prosecuted for presenting material that had been “hallucinated” by artificial intelligence tools.

Has anyone heard of an instance where an AI-hallucinated reference inadvertently got picked up by and displayed in a library catalog?

Zero-Shot Event Causality Identification via Multi-source Evidence Fuzzy Aggregation with Large Language Models
Event Causality Identification (ECI) aims to detect causal relationships between events in textual contexts. Existing ECI models predominantly rely on supervised methodologies, suffering from dependence on large-scale annotated data. Although Large Language Models (LLMs) enable zero-shot ECI, they are prone to causal hallucination-erroneously establishing spurious causal links. To address these challenges, we propose MEFA, a novel zero-shot framework based on Multi-source Evidence Fuzzy Aggrega…
