We propose OpenVoxel, a training-free algorithm for grouping and captioning sparse voxels for the open-vocabulary 3D scene understanding tasks. Given the sparse voxel rasterization (SVR) model obtained from multi-view images of a 3D scene, our OpenVoxel is able to produce meaningful groups that describe different objects in the scene. Also, by leveraging powerful Vision Language Models (VLMs) and Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs), our OpenVoxel successfully build an informative scene map by captioning each group, enabling further 3D scene understanding tasks such as open-vocabulary segmentation (OVS) or referring expression segmentation (RES). Unlike previous methods, our method is training-free and does not introduce embeddings from a CLIP/BERT text encoder. Instead, we directly proceed with text-to-text search using MLLMs. Through extensive experiments, our method demonstrates superior performance compared to recent studies, particularly in complex referring expression segmentation (RES) tasks.

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in visual-textual understanding, yet their reliability is critically undermined by hallucinations, i.e., the generation of factually incorrect or inconsistent responses.While recent studies using steering vectors demonstrated promise in reducing hallucinations, a notable challenge remains: they inadvertently amplify the severity of residual hallucinations. We attribute this to their exclusive focus on the decoding stage, where errors accumulate autoregressively and progressively worsen subsequent hallucinatory outputs.To address this, we propose Prefill-Time Intervention (PTI), a novel steering paradigm that intervenes only once during the prefill stage, enhancing the initial Key-Value (KV) cache before error accumulation occurs.Specifically, PTI is modality-aware, deriving distinct directions for visual and textual representations. This intervention is decoupled to steer keys toward visually-grounded objects and values to filter background noise, correcting hallucination-prone representations at their source.Extensive experiments demonstrate PTI's significant performance in mitigating hallucinations and its generalizability across diverse decoding strategies, LVLMs, and benchmarks. Moreover, PTI is orthogonal to existing decoding-stage methods, enabling plug-and-play integration and further boosting performance.
