What to do If you get Undesired Results

If the caption is evaluated as containing hallucinations (Failed) and you want to improve it:
  • Stick strictly to describing what is visibly present in the image
  • Avoid making assumptions about:
    • People’s identities (unless clearly labeled or universally recognizable)
    • The location or setting (unless clearly identifiable)
    • Time periods or dates
    • Actions occurring before or after the captured moment
    • Emotions or thoughts of subjects
    • Objects that are partially obscured or ambiguous
  • Use qualifying language (like “appears to be,” “what looks like”) when uncertain
  • Focus on concrete visual elements rather than interpretations
  • For generic descriptions, stay high-level and avoid specifics that aren’t clearly visible

Comparing Caption Hallucination with Similar Evals

  • Is AI Generated Image: Caption Hallucination evaluates the accuracy of image descriptions, while Is AI Generated Image determines if the image itself was created by AI.
  • Detect Hallucination: Caption Hallucination specifically evaluates image descriptions, whereas Detect Hallucination evaluates factual fabrication in text content more broadly.
  • Factual Accuracy: Caption Hallucination focuses on whether descriptions match what’s visible in images, while Factual Accuracy evaluates correctness of factual statements more generally.
