###### Abstract

We present an automatic large language model (LLM) conversion approach that
produces uncertainty-aware LLMs capable of estimating uncertainty with every
prediction. Our approach is model- and data-agnostic, is computationally-
efficient, and does not rely on external models or systems. We evaluate
converted models on the selective question answering setting – to answer as
many questions as possible while maintaining a given accuracy, forgoing
providing predictions when necessary. As part of our results, we test BERT and
Llama 2 model variants on the SQuAD extractive QA task and the TruthfulQA
generative QA task. We show that using the uncertainty estimates provided by
our approach to selectively answer questions leads to significantly higher
accuracy over directly using model probabilities.

## Introduction

Large-language models (LLMs) have demonstrated great abilities in natural
language tasks, including question answering (QA) wherein the model receives a
question as input and outputs a response answer. The QA task is a fundamental
component in many LLM applications. However, in order to robustly answer
questions accurately, the model must understand context and ground its outputs
in knowledge obtained from training data, which will typically contain
conflicting information. Indeed, it has been shown that LLMs commonly fail in
QA tasks (Geiger et al. 2019), and that these failures are associated with a
limited understanding of output confidence, out-of-domain data, ambiguity in
input prompts, inconsistent training information, and hallucinations, among
others. Selective prediction (El-Yaniv et al. 2010; Geifman and El-Yaniv
2017), i.e., calculating confidence estimates along with predictions to forgo
outputs likely to be incorrect, can be used to mitigate some of these issues.

Figure 1: Robust, uncertainty-aware language modeling. Our methodology
converts large language models (LLMs) – agnostic of architecture – into
uncertainty-aware variants and applies to generative (i.e., next-token
prediction, left) and extractive (i.e., sub-context answering, right) models.

Several approaches utilize the selective prediction to guide question
answering tasks (Peñas et al. 2010; Gondek et al. 2012) and generally abstain
from answering questions when output confidence is low. The objective is to
maintain a given accuracy while answering as many questions as possible, as
opposed to the more conventional goal of attempting to answer all questions
correctly. One approach used inferred softmax classifier probabilities to
calibrate which questions to respond to (Rodriguez et al. 2021). However,
training a calibration model is challenging and softmax classifiers are often
unreliable (Guo et al. 2017). Similarly, an out-of-domain (OOD) calibrator can
be trained to detect OOD inputs (Kamath, Jia, and Liang 2020) but requires
known or synthetic out-of-domain samples and does not consider other sources
of inaccuracies like over-represented features or ambiguous labels. Other
approaches include modeling and estimating LLM uncertainty (Dong, Quirk, and
Lapata 2018; Shen et al. 2022; Chen and Mueller 2023; Lin, Trivedi, and Sun
2023; Collins et al. 2023; Chuang et al. 2023; Quach et al. 2023), fine-tuning
calibrators to consider entropy, perplexity, and other metrics (Jiang et al.
2021), and calculating output consistency (Manakul, Liusie, and Gales 2023;
Miao, Teh, and Rainforth 2023). Another family of techniques retrieve evidence
and verify outputs through external databases (Guo, Schlichtkrull, and Vlachos
2022) or in-context learning (Weng et al. 2022). These solutions require the
development of knowledge bases and efficient querying systems which are often
not practical and fundamentally limited by the information that exists. A
facile, performant, and efficient way to estimate uncertainty directly from
models, without the need of external components, is needed to design a general
selective question answering framework that is applicable to a wide range of
tasks.

We present an uncertainty-based framework for selective QA that accounts for
epistemic and aleatoric uncertainty. We consider both extractive and
generative LLM models e.g., masked-language models and autoregressive models
respectively, and implement and evaluate a suite of uncertainty quantification
(UQ) methods spanning these uncertainty types. We find that while the
individual methods significantly increase performance on the selective QA
task, it is the combination of methods and metrics that yield the best
accuracy. Leveraging this observation and seeking to enable both performance
and efficiency, we present an approach to automatically convert LLMs into
uncertainty-aware variants and to compose metrics and methods automatically.
Our approach is model- and data-agnostic, lightweight, and does not rely on
external models or systems.

## Methodology

### Selective Question Answering

Given an input prompt $x$, the question answering task is to output a
prediction $\hat{y}$ where $\hat{y}\in Y(x)$, the set of all possible
responses, that correctly answers the question. In the selective QA task, the
model also outputs $\sigma$, an uncertainty estimate for a given output
$\hat{y}$, where $\sigma\in\mathbb{R}$. Given a threshold
$\gamma\in\mathbb{R}$, the model outputs $\hat{y}$ if $\sigma<\gamma$ and
refrains from responding if this condition is not met. Each $\gamma$ value
results in quantities for coverage (i.e., the ratio of questions the model
chose to respond to), and accuracy, (i.e., the number of predictions that
correctly answer the question). The goal is to maximize the number of
questions that can be answered accurately, that is, to increase both coverage
and accuracy. In this work, we convert models into uncertainty-aware variants
that output aleatoric, epistemic, or composed uncertainty estimates for every
prediction. The model learns data-dependent thresholds $\gamma$ and outputs
answers $(\hat{y},\sigma)$ where $\sigma<\gamma$. It forgoes providing
responses to questions where no candidate with this requirement exists (Alg.
1).

### Models and Datasets

##### Extractive models and dataset

In the extractive question answering task (Wang et al. 2006), each input $x$
represents $(c,q)$ which is composed of context text $c$ and a question $q$.
The space of possible answer candidates $y\in Y(x)$ is all sequential segments
in $c$ as defined by start and end indices within $c=c_{0},c_{1},\ldots,c_{n}$
with each index representing a token in the text. We consider the SQuAD
datasets (Rajpurkar et al. 2016; Rajpurkar, Jia, and Liang 2018), a collection
of over one hundred of thousand questions with corresponding answers presented
as segments from passages of text. We use BERT (Devlin et al. 2018), more
specifically bert-base-uncased 108M with the WordPiece Tokenizer (Wu et al.
2016), as our base model to define probability distributions $f(y|x)$ over
$Y(x)$. We convert this model into an uncertainty-aware variant that outputs
uncertainty for each index in the context text for every prediction.

##### Generative models and dataset

In the generative question answering task, input prompts $x$ are composed of
sequences of tokens $x_{0},x_{1},\ldots x_{n}$ representing questions. A model
is used to incrementally predict each subsequent token, starting from the last
token in the input prompt, to compose a response
$\hat{y}=\hat{y}_{0},\hat{y}_{1},\ldots,\hat{y}_{n}$ that correctly answers
the question. The space of answer candidates $y\in Y(x)$ includes all possible
sequential combinations of tokens in a given vocabulary. We consider the
TruthfulQA question answering benchmark (Lin, Hilton, and Evans 2021), 817
questions divided into several categories, meant to represent questions
commonly answered incorrectly by humans and therefore likely to be learned by
models imitating human text. We use Llama 2 (Touvron et al. 2023), more
specifically Llama 2-Chat 7B, which has been fine-tuned for dialogue use cases
with a vocabulary of 32k tokens, as our generative model. We convert this
model into an uncertainty-aware variant that outputs uncertainty estimates for
the entire vocabulary for every predicted token.

##### Model training and evaluation

Our extractive model, bert-base-uncased, is pre-trained on Book Corpus (Zhu et
al. 2015) and Wikipedia (Devlin et al. 2018). We further train for 3 epochs on
the 130,319 training samples provided in the SQuAD 2.0 dataset (Rajpurkar,
Jia, and Liang 2018). The uncertainty-aware variants are created by converting
the pre-trained model before training. We evaluate all models on the 11,873
questions in the SQuAD 2.0 test set, reporting accuracy for Exact Match and F1
metrics. We use the NeMo framework (Kuchaiev et al. 2019) to train and
evaluate our models. Our generative model, Llama 2-Chat 7B, is pre-trained and
fine-tuned for dialogue use cases. The uncertainty-aware variant is created by
converting this version of the model directly. No further training or
modifications are performed. We report accuracy using the BLEURT metric
(Sellam, Das, and Parikh 2020).

### Uncertainty Methods and Metrics

The uncertainty-aware model conversion produces a new model that is able to
estimate multiple different types of uncertainty, which we discuss in the
following section.

#### Aleatoric uncertainty

captures incertitude resulting from data (e.g., irreducible noise, labeling
errors, classes with low separation, etc). It quantifies what a model cannot
understand given the data provided. We model aleatoric uncertainty using Mean
and Variance Estimation (MVE) (Nix and Weigend 1994). In regression, a layer
predicts model output deviations and is trained using a negative log-
likelihood loss. An algorithm that generalizes to the classification case is
given in Alg. 2. We assume the logits are drawn from a normal distribution and
stochastically sample from them using the reparameterization trick. We average
stochastic samples and backpropagate using cross entropy loss through logits
and their inferred uncertainties.

Algorithm 2 Aleatoric Uncertainty in Classification

1:$\mu,\sigma\leftarrow f_{W}(x)$ $\triangleright$ Inference

2:for $i\in 1..T$ do $\triangleright$ Stochastic logits

3: $\tilde{z}\leftarrow\mu+\sigma\times\epsilon\sim\mathcal{N}(0,1)$

4:$\tilde{z}\leftarrow\frac{1}{N}\times\sum_{i=1}^{T}\tilde{z}$
$\triangleright$ Average logit

5:$\hat{y}\leftarrow\frac{\exp(\tilde{z})}{\sum_{j}\exp(\tilde{z}_{j})}$

6:$\mathcal{L}(x,y)\leftarrow-\sum_{j}y_{j}\log p_{j}$ $\triangleright$ Cross
entropy loss

#### Epistemic uncertainty

captures uncertainty arising from the predictive process. It quantifies the
inherent limitations in the model or lack of knowledge, intuitively
representing what the model does not know. We provide a unified approach for a
variety of epistemic uncertainty methods.

A Bayesian neural network can be approximated by stochastically sampling,
during inference, from a model with probabilistic layers (Blundell et al.
2015; Gal and Ghahramani 2016). Similarly, models of arbitrary depth that
follow sampling-based procedures to temporarily remove units (Srivastava et
al. 2014) from all layers are equivalent to approximations to the
probabilistic deep Gaussian process (Damianou and Lawrence 2013) and can be
used to estimate predictive uncertainty (Gal and Ghahramani 2016; Lemay et al.
2022; Mobiny et al. 2021). We calculate epistemic uncertainty using Monte
Carlo sampling (MC), i.e., running $T$ stochastic forward passes and computing
the first and second moments from these samples, yielding predictions and
uncertainty estimates, respectively. Ensembles of $N$ models, each a randomly
initialized stochastic sample, is another common approach used to estimate
epistemic uncertainty (Lakshminarayanan, Pritzel, and Blundell 2017), but
incurs a significant, multiplicative computational cost.

### Uncertainty-aware Model Conversion

Traditionally, models output predictions in the form of $\hat{y}=f_{W}(x)$.
Our method applies a conversion, $\Phi$, to build an uncertainty-aware model
to measure uncertainty metrics $\theta$:

$\displaystyle g(\cdot)\leftarrow\Phi_{\theta}(f_{W}),$
$\displaystyle\hat{y},\sigma=g(x)$

where $\sigma$ is the estimated uncertainty. Our conversion procedure adds and
modifies relevant model components while preserving structure and function.
This allows the new model to serve as a drop-in replacement that is
additionally able to estimate uncertainty metrics. All modifications are
integrated into a custom, metric-specific forward pass and training step that
integrates during training and inference. We use the Capsa framework (Lolla et
al. 2022, 2023) to perform model conversions. We refer readers to the Capsa
software library (Amini et al. 2023) for information on the software with the
functionality described in this publication.

Figure 2: Selective answering accuracy by confidence level. Increasing values
of logit probability do not correspond to increased question answering ability
– despite being often misconceived as a measure of confidence. Our methods
report a reliable measure of confidence – with increased confidence
corresponding to increased accuracy.

In this section we present results for conventional and uncertainty-guided
selective question answering. We use our conversion procedure to automatically
create uncertainty-aware variants for several UQ metrics and evaluate in both
extractive and generative QA tasks.

##### Nominal question answering performance

For our initial evaluation we create MVE, MC, and Ensemble variants of our
pre-trained extractive QA model. We train them for 3 epochs on the 130K
samples provided in the SQuAD 2.0 dataset and collect Exact Match and F1
accuracy results for the 11K test questions. In Tab. 1 we find that the
uncertainty-aware variants have performance that is consistent with the base
model with no significant reductions in accuracy.

##### Uncertainty-guided selective question answering

Having verified that QA performance remains consistent after model
conversions, we compare the performance of the different UQ variants on the
uncertainty-guided selective QA setting. For our extractive QA task, we
evaluate models on the 5,928 answerable questions in the SQuAD test set. For
the generative QA task, we generate multiple responses to all 817 questions in
the TruthfulQA benchmark.

We compare the coverage and accuracy obtained by the MVE, Ensemble, and MC UQ
variants when answering questions using their uncertainty estimates as the
selective prediction criteria. We further compare the UQ variants to the
original model, using the baseline logit probabilities (e.g., from softmax) as
the confidence value to guide selective predictions. These results are
outlined in Tab. 2b and Fig. 2. Using UQ metrics as a measure of confidence
leads to increased accuracy while answering larger portions of the questions,
whereas using logit probability does not. More importantly, we observe that in
both the extractive and generative case, predictions are least accurate when
logit probability confidence is highest. In fact, performance gradually
deteriorates to 0% as confidence increases, indicating logit probabilities
(e.g., from softmax) cannot reliably be used to determine answer confidence.
Moreover, the highest performance achieved using logit probability, 76.50%
accuracy for 60% of questions in the extractive case and 61.87% accuracy for
60% of questions in the generative case, is significantly lower than those
achieved using UQ metrics.

In the extractive case, MVE and Ensemble result in 100% accuracy when
answering questions in the top confidence percentile. MVE, Ensemble, and MC
obtain +90% accuracy with coverage rates of 5%, 15%, and 15%, respectively,
and +80% accuracy with coverage rates of 50%, 65%, and 75%, respectively.
Ensemble is able to reach 100% accuracy with the highest overall performance
across all confidence levels (Fig. 2). We observe that all converted models
are able to consistently, throughout the entire set of questions, identify
predictions likely to be incorrect (see Appendix).

In the generative case, using baseline logit probability to measure confidence
leads to a maximum increase in accuracy of only 4.7% for questions in the 4th
lowest percentile. In comparison, our uncertainty-aware models are able to
attain accuracy rates of 100%, +90%, +80%, +70% when answering 1%, 8%, 9%, and
35% of the questions, respectively, and result in higher accuracy across all
confidence percentiles. We further observe that after generating 10 candidate
answers for each question in the benchmark, answers with highest uncertainty
were consistently incorrect. We also note that the converted model is able to
output correct answers if it repeatedly generates predictions until one in the
99% confidence percentile is found.

Tab. 3 outlines results relating to computational performance. We find the
converted models incur minimal overhead in inference time and a negligible
increase in number of parameters. However, the Ensemble variant, results in
significant computational cost, roughly five times that of the original model.
Our automatic uncertainty-aware conversion procedure is completed in 0.0994
seconds for the 108M model and in 1.3856 seconds for our 7B model.

| Models |
---|---|---
| Baseline | MVE | Ensemble | MC | Composed
Parameters ($\times 10^{9}$) | 109.484 | 109.487 | 547.419 | 109.484 | 109.487
Inference Time | 1.00 | 1.016 | 4.997 | 1.1915 | 1.2075

##### Automated composition for performance and efficiency in selective QA

The performance of our Ensemble models motivated us to leverage our automated
conversion procedure to devise a compositional UQ method with strong accuracy
that does not require the training of multiple independent models or incur
significant computational costs. We hypothesized that considering both
aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty would result in a more comprehensive UQ
metric. We used MC as the epistemic uncertainty metric given that our
experiments showed it to be more computationally efficient than Ensemble. We
combined the measurement with MVE, which estimates aleatoric uncertainty, and
used our conversion procedure to create a model that calculates this composed
metric with every output. As shown in Tab. LABEL:tab:sel_bert and Fig. 2, the
composed approach attained significantly higher accuracy when compared to
other independent UQ metrics. Importantly, the composed approach does not
incur the significant computational overhead required by Ensembling-based
approaches. Our results demonstrate that automated uncertainty-awareness
enables the facile composition of different UQ methods to optimize for both
performance and computational efficiency, and enables strong effectiveness on
selective question answering tasks.

## Conclusion

We present an uncertainty-based framework for selective question answering
(QA). Our method automatically converts existing LLMs into an uncertainty-
aware variant, capable of estimating different forms of uncertainty. We
demonstrate an increase in empirical coverage and accuracy on selective QA
across models ranging in size from 100M to 7B parameters. By repeatedly
generating answers until our method is highly confident, we produce an LLM
that outputs 100% correct answers, eliminating hallucinations.
