The paper introduces Prediction of Prediction (PoP), a method that fuses intermediate hidden representations across transformer layers during a single forward pass to detect hallucinations in large language models. PoP leverages internal hidden‑state transition dynamics to signal factual errors without extra decoding steps, achieving a 75.5% AUROC on the TruthfulQA benchmark with less than 1.2% added latency.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across diverse tasks, yet they remain prone to generating hallucinations. Detecting these hallucinations is critical for deploying LLMs reliably in high-stakes applications.
arXiv:2606. 00819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved strong performance across diverse natural language tasks, yet their outputs often suffer from hallucinations -- content that is misaligned with factual information.

arXiv:2606. 27679v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Probe-based uncertainty estimation (UE) has emerged as a prominent approach to detect hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs) by learning uncertainty from internal model signals.
The paper introduces DescaPE, a decoding framework that uses internal model signals to reduce hallucinations in large language models. By identifying a factual‑salient layer span and training a lightweight probe to approximate its signal, DescaPE penalizes high‑risk continuations and rewards factually grounded ones during inference. Experiments on five factuality benchmarks across three LLMs show that DescaPE improves factuality with only a 1.10× latency overhead.

arXiv:2601. 12247v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) present a promising non-sequential paradigm for text generation, distinct from standard autoregressive (AR) approaches.
The paper introduces InnerExpert, a method that uses Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture signals—such as router entropy, expert disagreement, and usage patterns—to detect hallucinations at the token level in Large Language Models. By combining these MoE-specific signals with standard transformer features into compact per-token vectors, InnerExpert trains a lightweight detector using an LLM-as-a-judge pipeline, enabling continuous updates without manual labeling. Experiments across five datasets and two MoE architectures show that InnerExpert outperforms existing methods, achieving up to 0.91 answer-level and 0.76 token-level AUROC with only a single forward pass.
