RAG-Check: A Novel AI Framework for Hallucination Detection in Multi-Modal Retrieval-Augmented Generation Systems
Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized generative AI, showing remarkable capabilities in producing human-like responses. However, these models face a critical challenge known as hallucination, the tendency to generate incorrect or irrelevant information. This issue poses significant risks in high-stakes applications such as medical evaluations, insurance claim processing, and autonomous decision-making systems where accuracy is… Read more

What are Large Language Model (LLMs)?
Understanding and processing human language has always been a difficult challenge in artificial intelligence. Early AI systems often struggled to handle tasks like translating languages, generating meaningful text, or answering questions accurately. These systems relied on rigid rules or basic statistical methods that couldn’t capture the nuances of context, grammar, or cultural meaning. As a… Read more
