arXiv:2606.12900v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often hallucinate by generating factually incorrect or unfaithful content, posing significant risks to their safe use. Detecting such hallucinations is particularly challenging under the zero-source constraint, where no model internals or external references are available, and detection must rely solely on the textual query-answer pair. In this paper, we propose Human-like Criteria Probing for Hallucination Detection (HCPD), a paradigm that emulates the multi-faceted reasoning of human evaluators. Its core is a Huma
The proliferation of LLMs in critical applications necessitates robust methods for hallucination detection, especially as models scale and their outputs become more pervasive.
Reliable hallucination detection is crucial for the safe deployment and trustworthiness of Large Language Models, directly impacting their commercial viability and public acceptance.
This research introduces a new paradigm for detecting LLM hallucinations without internal access or external references, potentially accelerating the development of more trustworthy AI applications.
