摘要:
本文引入了一项新任务,利用局部扰动和自解释来评估大型语言模型(LLMs)的忠实性。许多LLM通常需要额外上下文才能正确回答某些问题。为此,我们提出了一种新的高效可解释性替代技术,其灵感源自常用的留一法。利用该方法,我们识别出LLM生成正确答案所需的充分且必要部分,以此作为解释。我们提出了一种评估忠实性的指标,将这些关键部分与模型的自解释进行比较。我们使用Natural Questions数据集验证了该方法,证明了其在解释模型决策和评估忠实性方面的有效性。
英文摘要:
This paper introduces a novel task to assess the faithfulness of large language models (LLMs) using local perturbations and self-explanations. Many LLMs often require additional context to answer certain questions correctly. For this purpose, we propose a new efficient alternative explainability technique, inspired by the commonly used leave-one-out approach. Using this approach, we identify the sufficient and necessary parts for the LLM to generate correct answers, serving as explanations. We propose a metric for assessing faithfulness that compares these crucial parts with the self-explanations of the model. Using the Natural Questions dataset, we validate our approach, demonstrating its effectiveness in explaining model decisions and assessing faithfulness.
