RFS-Guard: Detecting Reasoning Hallucinations via Cross-Phase Routing Focus in Large Reasoning Models (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large reasoning models (LRMs) generate intermediate reasoning traces before the final answer, yet they remain vulnerable to reasoning hallucinations such as subtle arithmetic errors. |
| Approach: | They propose a Routing Focus Score (RFS) that measures how strongly cross-step attention routing aligns with semantic proximity derived from hidden-state cosine similarity. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework detects and localizes hallucinations without external tools or repeated sampling. |
