DynHD: Hallucination Detection for Diffusion Large Language Models via Denoising Dynamics Deviation Learning
Diffusion large language models (D-LLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to auto-regressive models due to their iterative refinement capabilities. However, hallucinations remain a critical issue that hinders their reliability. To detect hallucination responses from model outputs, token-level uncertainty, such as entropy, has been widely used to indicate potential factual errors. Nevertheless, unlike auto-regressive models that generate tokens sequentially, D-LLMs generate fixed-length sequences simultaneously, where only a small subset of tokens is informative for hallucination detection. Thus, aggregating uncertainty over all tokens can be suboptimal. Moreover, the evolution trend of uncertainty throughout the diffusion process can also provide valuable signals, highlighting the necessity of modeling its denoising dynamics for hallucination detection. In this paper, we propose DynHD, which bridges these gaps from both spatial (token sequence) and temporal (denoising dynamics) perspectives. To handle the information density imbalance across tokens, we propose a semantic-aware evidence construction module that extracts hallucination-indicative signals by removing task-invariant structural tokens and emphasizing the uncertainty of the remaining informative tokens. To model denoising dynamics for hallucination detection, we introduce a reference evidence generator that learns the expected evolution trajectory of uncertainty evidence, along with a deviation-based hallucination detector that makes predictions by measuring the discrepancy between the observed and reference trajectories. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DynHD consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines while achieving higher efficiency across multiple benchmarks and backbone models.
