Current hallucination detection and mitigation datasets are limited in domains and sizes. This paper introduces an iterative self-training framework that simultaneously and progressively scales up the hallucination annotation dataset.

• Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit hallucinations in long-form question-answering tasks across various domains and wide applications. Current hallucination detection and mitigation datasets are limited in domains and sizes, which struggle to scale due to prohibitive labor costs and insufficient reliability of existing hallucination annotators. To facilitate the scalable oversight of LLM hallucinations, this paper introduces an iterative self-training framework that simultaneously and progressively scales up the hallucination annotation dataset and improves the accuracy of the hallucination annotator. Based on the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm, in each iteration, the framework first applies a hallucination annotation pipeline to annotate a scaled dataset and then trains a more accurate hallucination annotator on the dataset. This new hallucination annotator is adopted in the hallucination annotation pipeline used for the next iteration. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the finally obtained hallucination annotator with only 7B parameters surpasses the performance of GPT-4 and obtains new state-of-the-art hallucination detection results on HaluEval and HalluQA by zero-shot inference. Such an annotator can not only evaluate the hallucination levels of various LLMs on the large-scale dataset but also help to mitigate the hallucination of LLMs generations, with the Natural Language Inference (NLI) metric increasing from 25% to 37% on HaluEval.

  We present $textbfANAH$, a dataset that offers $textbfAN$alytical $textbfA$nnotation of hallucinations in Large Language Models. ANAH consists of 12k sentence-level annotations for 4.3k LLM responses covering over 700 topics, constructed by a human-in-the-loop pipeline. Thanks to the fine granularity of the hallucination annotations, we can quantitatively confirm that the hallucinations of LLMs accumulate in the answer and use ANAH to train and evaluate hallucination annotators.

  We propose detecting and mitigating hallucinations in Large Vision Language Models (LVLMs) via fine-grained AI feedback. We generate a small-size hallucination annotation dataset by proprietary models. Then, we propose a detect-then-rewrite pipeline to automatically construct preference dataset for training hallucination mitigating model.

  Large language models (LMs) are prone to generate factual errors, which are often called hallucinations. We introduce a comprehensive taxonomy of hallucinations and argue that hallucinations manifest in diverse forms. We propose a novel task of automatic fine-grained hallucination detection and construct a new evaluation benchmark, FavaBench.
