arXiv:2601. 21003v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Models usually put more emphasis on accuracy and therefore, will guess even when not certain about the prediction, which is especially severe when fine-tuned on small datasets due to the inherent tendency toward miscalibration.

arXiv:2606. 29184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) enables highly efficient fine-tuning by constraining task-specific updates to fixed low-rank subspaces, this rigid design limits representational flexibility and often results in overconfident predictions and miscalibrated uncertainty, especially in low-data regimes.

arXiv:2510. 00192v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) has become a widely used paradigm for parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large language models, yet its representational capacity often lags behind full fine-tuning.

Uncertainty estimation is essential not only for the trustworthy deployment of large language models (LLMs) but also as a foundation for self-refinement in LLM generation. However, existing approaches operate at suboptimal granularities: token-level scores lack semantic coherence, while sequence-level scores fail to localize errors.
arXiv:2606. 00494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) and Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) constitute the standard pipeline for efficient Large Language Model (LLM) deployment.

Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have enabled sophisticated reasoning and content generation, yet their inherent stochasticity poses significant challenges for ensuring predictive credibility. While traditional uncertainty taxonomy paradigms, such as the dichotomy of aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties, provide conceptual foundations, they often fail to capture the multi-component and multi-stage nature of LLM generation and struggle to evaluate the effectiveness of various Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) methods.
