Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have achieved remarkable progress across a wide range of multimodal tasks. However, object hallucination remains a persistent challenge, undermining model reliability in applications such as visual question answering, embodied agents, and human-AI decision support systems. In this paper, inspired by cognitive science studies on perceptual bias, we investigate a new failure mode termed Premise-Induced Visual Fixation Hallucination (PVFH). Specifically, PVFH refers to a premise-induced reasoning error in which models become anchored to visually confusable evidence, accept a false textual premise, and subsequently generate responses about an absent yet visually plausible object. To systematically study this phenomenon, we introduce PVFH-Bench, a benchmark that automatically constructs visually confusable but absent targets and pairs the core hallucination setting with diagnostic subsets to trace how models move from object recognition to Premise-Induced Visual Fixation Hallucination. Experimental results on 10 state-of-the-art LVLMs demonstrate that all evaluated models are highly vulnerable to Premise-Induced Visual Fixation Hallucination. Moreover, we find that explicit chain-of-thought reasoning can further exacerbate this failure mode by encouraging models to overinterpret weak visual cues as supporting evidence for hallucinated objects. All data and code will be publicly released on GitHub.

Large language model agents have enabled GUI-based automation, particularly for mobile devices. However, deployment remains limited by noisy data, poor generalization, and lack of support for non-English GUIs. In this work, we present AgentCPM-GUI, an 8B-parameter GUI agent built for robust and efficient on-device GUI interaction. Our training pipeline includes grounding-aware pre-training to enhance perception, supervised fine-tuning on high-quality Chinese and English trajectories to imitate human-like actions, and reinforcement fine-tuning with GRPO to improve reasoning capability. AgentCPM-GUI achieves promising performance on five public benchmarks and our proposed Chinese benchmark CAGUI. To facilitate reproducibility and further research, we publicly release all code, model checkpoint, and evaluation data at: https://github.com/OpenBMB/AgentCPM-GUI
Utilizing Graphic User Interfaces (GUIs) for human-computer interaction is essential for accessing various digital tools. Recent advancements in Vision Language Models (VLMs) reveal significant potential for developing versatile agents that assist humans in navigating GUIs. However, current VLMs face challenges related to fundamental abilities, such as OCR and grounding, as well as a lack of knowledge about GUI elements functionalities and control methods. These limitations hinder their effectiveness as practical GUI agents. To address these challenges, we introduce GUICourse, a series of datasets for training visual-based GUI agents using general VLMs. First, we enhance the OCR and grounding capabilities of VLMs using the GUIEnv dataset. Next, we enrich the GUI knowledge of VLMs using the GUIAct and GUIChat datasets. Our experiments demonstrate that even a small-sized GUI agent (with 3.1 billion parameters) performs effectively on both single-step and multi-step GUI tasks. We further finetune our GUI agents on other GUI tasks with different action spaces (AITW and Mind2Web), and the results show that our agents are better than their baseline VLMs. Additionally, we analyze the impact of OCR and grounding capabilities through an ablation study, revealing a positive correlation with GUI navigation ability.

Recent works have shown promising results of prompt tuning in stimulating pre-trained language models (PLMs) for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, to the best of our knowledge, existing works focus on prompt-tuning generative PLMs that are pre-trained to generate target tokens, such as BERT. It is still unknown whether and how discriminative PLMs, e.g., ELECTRA, can be effectively prompt-tuned. In this work, we present DPT, the first prompt tuning framework for discriminative PLMs, which reformulates NLP tasks into a discriminative language modeling problem. Comprehensive experiments on text classification and question answering show that, compared with vanilla fine-tuning, DPT achieves significantly higher performance, and also prevents the unstable problem in tuning large PLMs in both full-set and low-resource settings.
