LVLMs show vocabulary hijacking by inert tokens that decode to hijacking anchors; HABI locates them, NHAR finds resilient heads, and HAVAE boosts those heads to cut hallucinations.
Attention sinks arise from variance discrepancy in self-attention value aggregation, amplified by super neurons and first-token dimension disparity, and can be mitigated by head-wise RMSNorm to accelerate pre-training convergence.
Attention sinks emerge in language models from softmax-induced token dependence on attention scores and do not appear when using sigmoid attention without normalization in models up to 1B parameters.
