Sentence-Level Context Sensitivity as a Training-Free Detector of Unsupported Content, Evaluated Against Trained Verifiers
This research introduces Grounding-Aware Sensitivity by Perturbation (GASP), a training-free method to detect unsupported claims in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. It scores each answer sentence based on how strongly its likelihood depends on the retrieved evidence, using dynamical systems theory to measure context perturbation effects.
