Walking Through Uncertainty: An Empirical Study of Uncertainty Estimation for Audio-Aware Large Language Models
Semantic-level and verification-based uncertainty methods outperform token-level baselines for audio reasoning in ALLMs, but their relative performance on hallucination and unanswerable-question benchmarks is model- and task-dependent.
