Cross-Examination Framework: A Task-Agnostic Diagnostic for Information Fidelity in Text-to-Text Generation

Tathagata Raha, Clement Christophe, Nada Saadi +4

Traditional metrics like BLEU and BERTScore fail to capture semantic fidelity in generative text-to-text tasks. We adapt the Cross-Examination Framework (CEF) for a reference-free,…

Overalignment in Frontier LLMs: An Empirical Study of Sycophantic Behaviour in Healthcare

Clément Christophe, Wadood Mohammed Abdul, Prateek Munjal +3

As LLMs are increasingly integrated into clinical workflows, their tendency for sycophancy, prioritizing user agreement over factual accuracy, poses significant risks to patient sa…

Do Instruction-Tuned Models Always Perform Better Than Base Models? Evidence from Math and Domain-Shifted Benchmarks

Prateek Munjal, Clement Christophe, Ronnie Rajan +1

Instruction finetuning is standard practice for improving LLM performance, yet it remains unclear whether it enhances reasoning or merely induces surface-level pattern matching. We…
