We test whether a geometric hallucination taxonomy -- classifying failures as center-drift (Type~1), wrong-well convergence (Type~2), or coverage gaps (Type~3) -- can distinguish hallucination types through controlled induction in GPT-2.…

A geometric hallucination taxonomy distinguishes three failure types -- center-drift (Type~1), wrong-well convergence (Type~2), and coverage gaps (Type~3) -- by their signatures in embedding cluster space. Prior work found Types~1 and~2…

Hallucinations in deployed language models can have real consequences for downstream decisions in domains such as healthcare, legal, and financial services. In production, detection has to run on what the deployed system can see: the query,…

This work introduces a novel methodology for the automatic detection of hallucinations generated during large language model (LLM) inference. The proposed approach is based on a systematic taxonomy and controlled reproduction of diverse…

Large language models (LLMs) are susceptible to hallucinations -- factually incorrect outputs -- leading to a large body of work on detecting and mitigating such cases. We argue that it is important to distinguish between two types of…

Hallucinations -- plausible but factually incorrect responses -- pose a major challenge to the reliability of Large Language Models (LLMs), especially in multi-step or agentic settings. Existing work largely frames hallucinations as a…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in safety-critical domains, yet remain susceptible to hallucinations. While prior works have proposed confidence representation methods for hallucination detection, most of these…

Large language models (LLMs) frequently generate hallucinations-content that deviates from factual accuracy or provided context-posing challenges for diagnosis due to the complex interplay of underlying causes. This paper introduces a…

The recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have garnered widespread acclaim for their remarkable emerging capabilities. However, the issue of hallucination has parallelly emerged as a by-product, posing significant concerns.…

Hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs) represent a critical barrier to their reliable deployment, a vulnerability heavily exacerbated in non-English and resource-constrained contexts. Existing detection approaches that rely on…

Despite their impressive ability to generate high-quality and fluent text, generative large language models (LLMs) also produce hallucinations: statements that are misaligned with established world knowledge or provided input context.…

Hallucinations pose a significant obstacle to the reliability and widespread adoption of language models, yet their accurate measurement remains a persistent challenge. While many task- and domain-specific metrics have been proposed to…

LLMs deployed in high-stakes domains face fundamental reliability challenges: hallucinations, inconsistencies, and privacy vulnerabilities introduce unacceptable risks where errors carry legal, financial, or safety consequences. This paper…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in high-stakes financial domains, yet they suffer from specific, reproducible hallucinations when performing arithmetic operations. Current mitigation strategies often treat the model…

Large language models (LLMs) exhibit strong generative capabilities but remain vulnerable to confabulations, fluent yet unreliable outputs that vary arbitrarily even under identical prompts. Leveraging a quantum tensor network based…

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) integrate image encoders with Large Language Models (LLMs) to process multi-modal inputs and perform complex visual tasks. However, they often generate hallucinations by describing non-existent objects…

Hallucinations in LLMs present a critical barrier to their reliable usage. Existing research usually categorizes hallucination by their external properties rather than by the LLMs' underlying internal properties. This external focus…

Hallucinations are one of the major issues affecting LLMs, hindering their wide adoption in production systems. While current research solutions for detecting hallucinations are mainly based on heuristics, in this paper we introduce a…

Large language models (LLMs) hallucinate with confidence: their outputs can be fluent, authoritative, and simply wrong. In medical, legal, and scientific applications this failure causes direct harm, and detecting it from internal model…

While many capabilities of language models (LMs) improve with increased training budget, the influence of scale on hallucinations is not yet fully understood. Hallucinations come in many forms, and there is no universally accepted…
