The paper introduces SCHEMA, a topology‑aware evaluation framework designed to assess hallucinations in large language model agents used for scientific research. SCHEMA builds scientific concept graphs from benchmark seeds and literature evidence, then generates graph‑grounded tasks such as claim verification, multi‑hop reasoning, open‑ended explanation, and experimental code generation. It evaluates agents using a trajectory hallucination pipeline that assigns a topology‑weighted severity score and a multi‑agent counterfactual attribution module that identifies the causal mechanisms behind failures. The study finds that hallucinations tend to cluster around highly connected knowledge hubs and that a model’s final accuracy can be misleading, as correct answers may arise from structurally flawed reasoning.
"whyItMatters":"The findings highlight that terminal accuracy alone is insufficient for high‑stakes scientific applications, underscoring the need for mechanism‑level evaluation grounded in knowledge topology."
