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.
