Description

However, the presence of hallucinations in LLM generated content can pose significant risk to medical decision making, patient safety and data integrity.

Hence it is critical to investigate and develop methods to improve the reliability of these powerful LLMs across AZ.

This work delves into the critical importance of mitigating hallucinations in LLMs and thereby improving the interpretability of LLM responses by estimating well-calibrated confidence score for LLM predictions.

The key objectives of this project are,

Develop a method to utilize combination of expert models to provide confidence bounds at an outputlevel and mitigate hallucination in LLMs primarily for information extraction from unstructured and semistructured data sources.
Conduct extensive experiments, collect, and analyse data (internal dataset available), and publish the research findings to further increase the impact.
