Grounded or Guessing? LVLM Confidence Estimation via Blind-Image Contrastive Ranking

Reza Khanmohammadi, Erfan Miahi, Simerjot Kaur +4

Large vision-language models suffer from visual ungroundedness: they can produce a fluent, confident, and even correct response driven entirely by language priors, with the image c…

How Reliable are Confidence Estimators for Large Reasoning Models? A Systematic Benchmark on High-Stakes Domains

Reza Khanmohammadi, Erfan Miahi, Simerjot Kaur +4

The miscalibration of Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) undermines their reliability in high-stakes domains, necessitating methods to accurately estimate the confidence of their long-f…

Grounding LLM Reasoning with Knowledge Graphs

Alfonso Amayuelas, Joy Sain, Simerjot Kaur +1

Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at generating natural language answers, yet their outputs often remain unverifiable and difficult to trace. Knowledge Graphs (KGs) offer a comple…

Calibrating LLM Confidence by Probing Perturbed Representation Stability

Reza Khanmohammadi, Erfan Miahi, Mehrsa Mardikoraem +5

Miscalibration in Large Language Models (LLMs) undermines their reliability, highlighting the need for accurate confidence estimation. We introduce CCPS (Calibrating LLM Confidence…

A Variational Approach for Mitigating Entity Bias in Relation Extraction

Samuel Mensah, Elena Kochkina, Jabez Magomere +3

Mitigating entity bias is a critical challenge in Relation Extraction (RE), where models often rely excessively on entities, resulting in poor generalization. This paper presents a…
