LM vs LM: Detecting Factual Errors via Cross Examination
Open accessAbstract
A prominent weakness of modern language models (LMs) is their tendency to generate factually incorrect text, which hinders their usability.A natural question is whether such factual errors can be detected automatically.Inspired by truth-seeking mechanisms in law, we propose a factuality evaluation framework for LMs that is based on cross-examination.Our key idea is that an incorrect claim is likely to result in inconsistency with other claims that the model generates.To discover such inconsistencies, we facilitate a multi-turn interaction between the LM that generated the claim and another LM (acting as an examiner) which introduces questions to discover inconsistencies.We empirically evaluate our method on factual claims made by multiple recent LMs on four benchmarks, finding that it outperforms existing methods and baselines, often by a large gap.Our results demonstrate the potential of using interacting LMs to capture factual errors.

Cohen et al. introduced the LMvLM approach, which leverages an examiner LM to question an examinee LM, aiming to unveil inconsistencies of claims during multi-turn interaction.
“Drawing inspiration from legal cross-examination practices, Cohen et al. [62] introduced the LMvLM approach. This strategy leverages an examiner LM to question an examinee LM, aiming to unveil inconsistencies of claims during multi-turn interaction.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
