Abstract
In this paper, we present our approach toSemEval-2024 Task 6: SHROOM, a Sharedtask on Hallucinations and Related ObservableOvergeneration Mistakes, which aims to determine weather AI generated text is semanticallycorrect or incorrect. This work is a comparative study of Large Language Models (LLMs)in the context of the task, shedding light ontheir effectiveness and nuances. We present asystem that leverages pre-trained LLMs, suchas LaBSE, T5, and DistilUSE, for binary classification of given sentences into ‘Hallucination’or ‘Not Hallucination’ classes by evaluatingthe model’s output against the reference correct text. Moreover, beyond utilizing labeleddatasets, our methodology integrates syntheticlabel creation in unlabeled datasets, followedby the prediction of test labels.
