HalluTracer: Pre-Decoding Truthfulness Prediction via Depth-Averaged Probe-Logit

Internal-state probes enable truthfulness prediction before a large language model generates an answer. When detectors change both the layers they read and the rules used to combine them, the source of improved prediction becomes difficult to identify. We separate these choices and find that retaining more layers impro...

Right Direction, Wrong Step: Geometric Analysis of Finite-Step Failure in Looped Transformers

Looped Transformers offer a parameter-efficient route to test-time scaling by reusing shared layers for iterative latent reasoning. However, additional iterations can reduce support for a reference answer, leaving unclear whether an update's direction is locally unhelpful or its full displacement moves too far. We stud...

HalluTracer: Hallucination Detection via Depth-Averaging Truth Signals

HalluTracer is introduced, a detection framework that reads and aggregates truthfulness evidence across every layer of the forward pass before the model emits any answer token, recasts hallucination detection from a layer-selection problem into a depth-aggregation problem governed by the geometric sparsity of the truth...
