arXiv:2606. 10198v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hallucination detection in large language and vision-language models is increasingly framed as selective prediction, where a detector assigns a confidence score and abstains when confidence is low.

arXiv:2607. 24586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models can produce fluent text that is false, unsupported by the available evidence, or inconsistent with information that appears to be internally represented by the model.
arXiv:2608. 16353v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Even well-aligned large language models confidently generate factually incorrect text, making hallucination a persistent reliability risk in high-stakes deployments.
The paper introduces a token‑level hallucination detector that treats hallucinations as temporally extended spans and uses sequence labeling. It fuses 33‑dimensional features from text statistics, NLI entailment, and language‑model surprisal, and applies a BiGRU to achieve an AUC of 0.840 on RAGTruth, outperforming a logistic‑regression baseline by 11 points. The study shows that temporal ordering of features, rather than model capacity, drives most of the performance gain, and the detector remains effective on unseen language models with less than 4% AUC loss.

The paper introduces a low-cost method for detecting hallucinations in large language models by treating the model as a black-box dynamical system. It projects responses into a high-dimensional manifold, models the latent state-space dynamics with Koopman operator theory, and uses differential residual scores from transition operators to distinguish factual from hallucinated outputs. The approach requires only a single-sample pass and shows state-of-the-art performance across three benchmarks with reduced resource overhead.
arXiv:2603. 21693v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for medical Visual Question Answering (VQA), yet they remain prone to hallucinations, defined as generating responses that contradict the input image, posing serious risks in clinical settings.
DynHD is a method for detecting hallucinations in diffusion large language models (D‑LLMs) by focusing on token‑level uncertainty and its evolution during the denoising process. It introduces a semantic‑aware evidence construction module that filters out non‑informative structural tokens and highlights uncertainty in informative tokens, and a reference evidence generator that models the expected trajectory of uncertainty, enabling a deviation‑based detector to identify hallucinations. Experiments show DynHD outperforms existing baselines while being more efficient across various benchmarks and backbone models.
The paper introduces a multi‑signal pipeline for detecting hallucinations in large language model outputs, combining fine‑tuned DeBERTa‑v3 classification, Monte Carlo Dropout uncertainty, and temperature‑scaled calibration. On the HaluEval benchmark it achieves strong performance (F1 = 0.915, AUROC = 0.977) and further improves accuracy to 93.2% with MC Dropout. The authors also demonstrate that applying Direct Preference Optimization to a Qwen2.5‑0.5B generator reduces hallucination rates from 85.5% to 37.7%, and show that domain‑specific fine‑tuning (PubMedBERT on SciFact) yields better results than general‑domain training.
