ReDAct: Uncertainty-Aware Deferral for LLM Agents
Dzianis Piatrashyn, Nikita Kotelevskii, Kirill Grishchenkov +7
Recently, LLM-based agents have become increasingly popular across many applications, including complex sequential decision-making problems. However, they inherit the tendency of L…
ReProbe: Efficient Test-Time Scaling of Multi-Step Reasoning by Probing Internal States of Large Language Models
Jingwei Ni, Ekaterina Fadeeva, Tianyi Wu +8
LLMs can solve complex tasks by generating long, multi-step reasoning chains. Test-time scaling (TTS) can further improve performance by sampling multiple variants of intermediate…
A Head to Predict and a Head to Question: Pre-trained Uncertainty Quantification Heads for Hallucination Detection in LLM Outputs
Artem Shelmanov, Ekaterina Fadeeva, Akim Tsvigun +9
Large Language Models (LLMs) have the tendency to hallucinate, i.e., to sporadically generate false or fabricated information. This presents a major challenge, as hallucinations of…
Faithfulness-Aware Uncertainty Quantification for Fact-Checking the Output of Retrieval Augmented Generation
Ekaterina Fadeeva, Aleksandr Rubashevskii, Dzianis Piatrashyn +7
Large Language Models (LLMs) enhanced with retrieval, an approach known as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), have achieved strong performance in open-domain question answering.…
Token-Level Density-Based Uncertainty Quantification Methods for Eliciting Truthfulness of Large Language Models
Artem Vazhentsev, Lyudmila Rvanova, Ivan Lazichny +4
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is a prominent approach for eliciting truthful answers from large language models (LLMs). To date, information-based and consistency-based UQ have b…
