Layer-Resolved Optimal Transport for Hallucination Detection in NMT and Abstractive Summarization

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Optimal transport (OT) has been shown to detect hallucinations in neural machine translation (NMT) by measuring the geometric distance between cross-attention distributions and a reference distribution, without any supervision. We extend this analysis to all six decoder layers of the Fairseq DE-EN model ($N=3{,}414$), showing that Wass-to-Unif and Wass-to-Data are complementary detectors specialised across hallucination types, that detection is concentrated in layers L1--L4 with L5 anti-predictive for subtler types, and that hallucinated translations lack the exploratory attention phase present in correct translations from the first decoding step.

Resonant Context Anchoring: Decoupling Attention Routing and Signal Gain at Inference Time

arXiv:2606. 01923v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) frequently exhibit "contextual disregard" when faced with input evidence that conflicts with their internal parametric memory, leading to persistent factual hallucinations.

Detecting Hallucinations in Retrieval-Augmented Generation through Grounding-Aware Sensitivity by Perturbation (GASP)

arXiv:2607. 04223v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) reduces but does not eliminate hallucination, and existing detectors return a single answer-level score that does not indicate which sentence is unsupported, or why.

Hallucination Is Linearly Decodable from Mid-Layer Hidden States in Quantized LLMs

arXiv:2606. 02628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We investigate whether open-source LLMs encode a linearly separable truthfulness signal in their hidden states, and at which network depth this signal is strongest.
