Uncertainty as Feature Gaps: Epistemic Uncertainty Quantification of LLMs in Contextual Question-Answering

Yavuz Bakman, Sungmin Kang, Zhiqi Huang +8

Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) research has primarily focused on closed-book factual question answering (QA), while contextual QA remains unexplored, despite its importance in rea…

Harmonizing Diverse Models: A Layer-wise Merging Strategy for Consistent Generation

Xujun Peng, Anoop Kumar, Jingyu Wu +2

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate accurate and reliable responses that are grounded in retrieved context. However, LLMs…

Confidence-Based Response Abstinence: Improving LLM Trustworthiness via Activation-Based Uncertainty Estimation

Zhiqi Huang, Vivek Datla, Chenyang Zhu +4

We propose a method for confidence estimation in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems that aligns closely with the correctness of large language model (LLM) outputs. Confid…

TruthTorchLM: A Comprehensive Library for Predicting Truthfulness in LLM Outputs

Duygu Nur Yaldiz, Yavuz Faruk Bakman, Sungmin Kang +9

Generative Large Language Models (LLMs)inevitably produce untruthful responses. Accurately predicting the truthfulness of these outputs is critical, especially in high-stakes setti…

FB-RAG: Improving RAG with Forward and Backward Lookup

Kushal Chawla, Alfy Samuel, Anoop Kumar +1

Traditional Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) struggles with complex queries that lack strong signals to retrieve the most relevant context, forcing a trade-off between choosing…
