An empirical study distills a taxonomy of human factual errors from newspaper corrections and shows LLMs achieve only 52% F1 on detection.
AuthorityBench shows citation presence (real or fabricated) increases LLM hallucination rates vs no-citation baseline, strongest for fabricated citations on true claims, with domain variation but negligible venue or author effects.
PhantomBench is a new benchmark of 60K+ non-existent terms showing language models hallucinate at rates up to 86.7 percent even when inputs assume the concepts exist.
SuperMemory-VQA provides 4,853 human-verified QA pairs from 52.9 hours of egocentric AI glasses recordings to benchmark AI systems on realistic long-horizon memory tasks including an unanswerable option.
A three-axis taxonomy of LLM deception, applied to 50 benchmarks, shows fabrication is heavily covered while omission, pragmatic distortion, attribution, and capability self-knowledge remain gaps.
Hallucinations arise from biased latent inference paths rather than missing knowledge, demonstrated via a new diagnostic testbed TrapQA that isolates task-retrieval and key-selection biases.
The paper characterizes deductive stereotyping in LLMs and introduces Fair-GCG to discover injection phrases that improve fairness across benchmarks, reasoning, and real-world tasks.
Global calibration metrics like ECE are confounded by accuracy; the proposed ACE framework with three accuracy-controlled views shows many prior calibration advantages weaken or reverse.
AURORA detects hallucinations via skewness of cosine similarities between weights and gradients plus a rotation ratio from SVD on update-induced changes to singular vectors.
TriLens detects hallucinations via per-layer entropy trajectories of logit-lens readouts from three internal modules across LLMs and QA benchmarks.
A GNN trained on bipartite alignment graphs between references and LLM generations reports state-of-the-art hallucination detection across four datasets, beating prior methods and GPT-4o.
TRACE uses cross-layer candidate trajectories inside frozen LLMs to dynamically select and apply one of three correction operators, delivering mean gains of +12.26 MC1 and +8.65 MC2 points across 15 models and 3 benchmarks with no regressions.
LaaB improves LLM hallucination detection by mapping self-judgment labels back into neural feature space and using mutual learning under logical consistency constraints between responses and meta-judgments.
Adaptive Unlearning suppresses package hallucinations in code-generating LLMs by 81% while preserving benchmark performance, using model-generated data and no human labels.
Know2Guess is a contamination-aware multi-zone benchmark for evaluating LLM knowledge boundaries with explicit abstention expectations and dual parsers.
LAG-XAI treats paraphrasing as affine flows in semantic manifolds using Lie-inspired approximations, achieving AUC 0.7713 on paraphrase detection and 95.3% hallucination detection on HaluEval.
ReFACT benchmark reveals LLMs show a persistent salient distractor failure mode where 61% of incorrect error span predictions are semantically unrelated to actual errors, persisting across model sizes, and comparative judgment yields lower F1 than independent detection.
CORTEX detects token-level hallucinations in RAG via comparative internal representations, information propagation, and smoothing, reporting gains on two benchmarks with three LLMs.
Introduces LLM-FACETS, a privacy-preserving open-source framework for LLM evaluation using deterministic metrics locally, LLM-judge metrics with user-controlled APIs, and mechanisms for uncertainty visualization and hallucination detection.
Any spectral diagnostic that depends only on singular values or the symmetric part of a degree-normalized attention matrix is invariant under transpose, so it cannot see the direction of information flow.
EPGS detects high-confidence factual errors in LLMs by using embedding perturbations to measure gradient sensitivity as a proxy for sharp versus flat minima.
A thermodynamic-inspired information-geometric framework defines a composite LLM stability score that outperforms a utility-entropy baseline by 0.0299 on average across 80 observations, with gains increasing at higher entropy.
