Despite significant progress in video-language modeling, hallucinations remain a persistent challenge in Video Large Language Models (Vid-LLMs), referring to outputs that appear plausible yet contradict the content of the input video. This survey presents a comprehensive analysis of hallucinations in Vid-LLMs and introduces a systematic taxonomy that categorizes them into two core types: dynamic distortion and content fabrication, each comprising two subtypes with representative cases. Building on this taxonomy, we review recent advances in the evaluation and mitigation of hallucinations, covering key benchmarks, metrics, and intervention strategies. We further analyze the root causes of dynamic distortion and content fabrication, which often result from limited capacity for temporal representation and insufficient visual grounding. These insights inform several promising directions for future work, including the development of motion-aware visual encoders and the integration of counterfactual learning techniques. This survey consolidates scattered progress to foster a systematic understanding of hallucinations in Vid-LLMs, laying the groundwork for building robust and reliable video-language systems.

Recent researches show that pre-trained models (PTMs) are beneficial to Chinese Word Segmentation (CWS). However, PTMs used in previous works usually adopt language modeling as pre-training tasks, lacking task-specific prior segmentation knowledge and ignoring the discrepancy between pre-training tasks and downstream CWS tasks. In this paper, we propose a CWS-specific pre-trained model MetaSeg, which employs a unified architecture and incorporates meta learning algorithm into a multi-criteria pre-training task. Empirical results show that MetaSeg could utilize common prior segmentation knowledge from different existing criteria and alleviate the discrepancy between pre-trained models and downstream CWS tasks. Besides, MetaSeg can achieve new state-of-the-art performance on twelve widely-used CWS datasets and significantly improve model performance in low-resource settings.
