This paper is adjacent to HFEPX scope and is best used for background context, not as a primary protocol reference.
Use this as background context only. Do not make protocol decisions from this page alone.
All signals on this page are inferred from the abstract only and may be inaccurate. Do not use this page as a primary protocol reference.
Best use
Background context only
Use if you need
A benchmark-and-metrics comparison anchor.
What to verify
Validate the evaluation procedure and quality controls in the full paper before operational use.
Main weakness
This paper looks adjacent to evaluation work, but not like a strong protocol reference.
Treat as adjacent context, not a core eval-method reference.

As grounded QA systems are increasingly deployed in AI assistants, accurately attributing generated answers to evidence is critical for user trust and model safety. While unimodal attributions have been explored in depth, the multimodal setting remains relatively under-researched. As a result, we introduce MultAttnAttrib, a training-free attribution-generation method that leverages a model's prefill pass, selected attention heads, and calibrated thresholds to locate source evidence within a document. To establish baseline results for the method, we introduce MultAttrEval, a complementary benchmark dataset annotated with fine-grained, ground-truth attributions for answer components grounded in multimodal source documents. To our knowledge, this is the first evaluation dataset designed specifically for multimodal attribution in long-form documents. Experimental results show that MultAttnAttrib consistently outperforms a variety of attribution-generation methods, including several strong prompting-based approaches and matches the latest frontier models such as GPT 5.4. Our method not only substantially improves attribution accuracy for both unimodal and multimodal attribution types, but also produces attributions at up to one-seventh of the direct inference latency compared to prompting on the same base model.
These are the protocol signals we could actually recover from the available paper metadata. Use them to decide whether this paper is worth deeper reading.
