Binary verification workflow for zero-shot vision using off-the-shelf vision-language models (VLMs)

advanced Published 30 Mar 2026
Action Steps
  1. Quantize the open-ended query into a multiple-choice question with a small list of candidates
  2. Binarize the query by asking one True/False question per candidate
  3. Resolve deterministically by selecting the candidate if exactly one is True, otherwise revert to a multiple-choice question
