ReForest: Interpretability Meets Reasoning in Isolation Forest

Read the original on arXiv AI →

ReForest is a new framework that combines the statistical efficiency of Isolation Forest with the semantic reasoning of Large Language Models. It converts Isolation Forest’s decision paths into natural‑language explanations, allowing an LLM to refine anomaly detection through an uncertainty‑aware dynamic ensemble. Experiments on healthcare and finance datasets show ReForest improves recall by 21% and F1‑score by 10%, while providing interpretable rationales grounded in statistical evidence.

Can Large Language Models Explain Flight Safety Events? A Prior-Guided Semantic LLM-based Approach

The paper introduces FlightLLM, a prior-guided semantic approach that uses large language models to explain flight safety events. It tackles challenges such as modal inconsistency, limited classification ability, and scarce domain data by combining feature engineering, semantic discretization, a CatBoost statistical expert, contrastive few-shot learning, and structured prompts. Evaluated on 704 real‑world A320 flights, FlightLLM achieves competitive classification and produces clear, aviation‑specific explanations for hard landing events.

From Tokens to Semantics: Leveraging Complementary Signals for Hallucination Detection in Black-Box LLMs

The paper investigates hallucination detection in black‑box large language models by leveraging two accessible signals: semantic entropy, which captures disagreement among sampled response meanings, and token‑level uncertainty derived from log‑probabilities. It introduces a TopK aggregation technique, a hybrid CoCoA method combining uncertainty with semantic dissimilarity, and two supervised approaches—Gated and Stacked—that integrate token and semantic features. Across seven benchmarks and four language models, the supervised Stacked method performs best in many cases, while TopK and CoCoA remain competitive without labeled data, though all methods require careful threshold calibration.

Traceable LLM Reasoning for Fake-Order Fraud Detection

arXiv:2607. 23075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting fake-order fraud at scale remains a critical challenge for large online-to-offline (O2O) service platforms, as existing approaches often rely on expert-designed features, produce black-box decisions, and provide limited interpretability.

Revealing Epistemic Uncertainty in MLLMs via Causal-Invariant Masking

The paper introduces Causal-Invariant Masking (CIM) to better quantify epistemic uncertainty in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) by measuring semantic shift between original predictions and those conditioned on a causally-focused view. It proposes Semantic Divergence as a core metric that converges to the variance of the model’s sensitivity to non‑causal correlations, and introduces Expected Embedding Drift (EED) as a fast geometric proxy that estimates this shift directly in the embedding space. Experiments demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art uncertainty quantification performance and a nearly 50% speedup with EED.
