Some approaches are validated only on small, specific constraint sets, limiting their general applicability.
“Some approaches are validated only on small, specific constraint sets, limiting their general applicability (Schick et al., 2023; Saunders et al., 2022; Lee et al., 2024; Mu et al., 2023; Yang et al., 2022; Gou et al., 2024; Varshney et al., 2023).”
From LLM Self-Correction with DeCRIM: Decompose, Critique, and Refine for Enhanced Following of Instructions with Multiple Constraints (2024) · cites this paper as Lee et al., 2024
Section 4.1 (page unavailable) says VOLCANO was evaluated on five benchmarks spanning hallucination and general multimodal performance, including benchmarks with 9,000 and 4,377 questions. Appendix A (page unavailable) describes multiple task and question types. That is contrary to characterizing this approach as validated only on a small, specific constraint set; the paper’s Limitations section instead identifies execution time as its notable drawback.

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.
