Benchmarking Multi-turn Medical Diagnosis: Hold, Lure, and Self-Correction

Jinrui Fang, Runhan Chen, Xu Yang +9

Large language models (LLMs) achieve high accuracy in medical diagnosis when all clinical information is provided in a single turn, yet how they behave under multi-turn evidence ac…

Wired for Overconfidence: A Mechanistic Perspective on Inflated Verbalized Confidence in LLMs

Tianyi Zhao, Yinhan He, Wendy Zheng +2

Large language models are often not just wrong, but \emph{confidently wrong}: when they produce factually incorrect answers, they tend to verbalize overly high confidence rather th…

The Law of Knowledge Overshadowing: Towards Understanding, Predicting, and Preventing LLM Hallucination

Yuji Zhang, Sha Li, Cheng Qian +8

Hallucination is a persistent challenge in large language models (LLMs), where even with rigorous quality control, models often generate distorted facts. This paradox, in which err…

EVEDIT: Event-based Knowledge Editing with Deductive Editing Boundaries

Jiateng Liu, Pengfei Yu, Yuji Zhang +3

The dynamic nature of real-world information necessitates efficient knowledge editing (KE) in large language models (LLMs) for knowledge updating. However, current KE approaches, w…
