Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) must resolve conflicts when modalities provide contradictory information, a process we term "modality following". We propose a framework that deconstructs this behavior into case-specific relative reasoning uncertainty and a model's stable inherent preference…
Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) suffer from sycophantic behavior, where models tend to agree with users' incorrect beliefs and follow misinformation rather than maintain independent reasoning. This behavior undermines model reliability and poses societal risks. Mitigating LRM sycophancy requires monit…
Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) have garnered increasing attention due to their ability to provide concept-based explanations for black-box deep learning models while achieving high final prediction accuracy using human-like concepts. However, the training of current CBMs is heavily dependent on th…
