Cross-lingual Calibration of Pre-Generation Success Probes for Multilingual LLM Routing

Andrea Paganelli, Stefano Civelli, Pietro Bernardelle +1

Pre-generation success probes estimate response correctness from a language model's hidden activations before decoding, enabling cost-aware routing. While prior work has demonstrat…

Context Shapes LLMs Retrieval-Augmented Fact-Checking Effectiveness

Pietro Bernardelle, Stefano Civelli, Kevin Roitero +1

Large language models (LLMs) show strong reasoning abilities across diverse tasks, yet their performance on extended contexts remains inconsistent. While prior research has emphasi…

A Shared Geometry of Difficulty in Multilingual Language Models

Stefano Civelli, Pietro Bernardelle, Nicolò Brunello +1

Predicting problem-difficulty in large language models (LLMs) refers to estimating how difficult a task is according to the model itself, typically by training linear probes on its…

Ideology-Based LLMs for Content Moderation

Stefano Civelli, Pietro Bernardelle, Nardiena A. Pratama +1

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in content moderation systems, where ensuring fairness and neutrality is essential. In this study, we examine how persona adoptio…

The Impact of Persona-based Political Perspectives on Hateful Content Detection

Stefano Civelli, Pietro Bernardelle, Gianluca Demartini

While pretraining language models with politically diverse content has been shown to improve downstream task fairness, such approaches require significant computational resources o…

SubData: Bridging Heterogeneous Datasets to Enable Theory-Driven Evaluation of Political and Demographic Perspectives in LLMs

Pietro Bernardelle, Leon Fröhling, Stefano Civelli +1

As increasingly capable large language models (LLMs) emerge, researchers have begun exploring their potential for subjective tasks. While recent work demonstrates that LLMs can be…

Mapping and Influencing the Political Ideology of Large Language Models using Synthetic Personas

Pietro Bernardelle, Leon Fröhling, Stefano Civelli +3

The analysis of political biases in large language models (LLMs) has primarily examined these systems as single entities with fixed viewpoints. While various methods exist for meas…
