LettuceDetect: Polish Hallucination Detection Model

Model Name: lettucedect-210m-eurobert-pl-v1
Organization: KRLabsOrg
Github: https://github.com/KRLabsOrg/LettuceDetect

Overview

LettuceDetect is a transformer-based model for hallucination detection on context and answer pairs, designed for multilingual Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications. This model is built on EuroBERT-210M, which has been specifically chosen for its extended context support (up to 8192 tokens) and strong multilingual capabilities. This long-context capability is critical for tasks where detailed and extensive documents need to be processed to accurately determine if an answer is supported by the provided context.

This is our Polish base model utilizing EuroBERT-210M architecture

Model Details

• Architecture: EuroBERT-210M with extended context support (up to 8192 tokens)
• Task: Token Classification / Hallucination Detection
• Training Dataset: RagTruth-PL (translated from the original RAGTruth dataset)
• Language: Polish

How It Works

The model is trained to identify tokens in the Polish answer text that are not supported by the given context. During inference, the model returns token-level predictions which are then aggregated into spans. This allows users to see exactly which parts of the answer are considered hallucinated.

Usage

Installation

Install the 'lettucedetect' repository

pip install lettucedetect

Using the model

from lettucedetect.models.inference import HallucinationDetector

# For a transformer-based approach:
detector = HallucinationDetector(
    method="transformer", 
    model_path="KRLabsOrg/lettucedect-210m-eurobert-pl-v1",
    lang="pl",
    trust_remote_code=True
)

contexts = ["Kopernikanizm to teoria astronomiczna opracowana przez Mikołaja Kopernika, zgodnie z którą Słońce znajduje się w centrum Układu Słonecznego, a Ziemia i inne planety krążą wokół niego. Teoria ta została opublikowana w dziele 'O obrotach sfer niebieskich' w 1543 roku."]
question = "Na czym polega teoria kopernikańska i kiedy została opublikowana?"
answer = "Teoria kopernikańska zakłada, że Ziemia jest jednym z wielu ciał niebieskich krążących wokół Słońca. Kopernik opracował również zaawansowane równania matematyczne opisujące ruch satelitów, które zostały wykorzystane w XX wieku w programie kosmicznym NASA. Teoria została opublikowana w 1543 roku."

# Get span-level predictions indicating which parts of the answer are considered hallucinated.
predictions = detector.predict(context=contexts, question=question, answer=answer, output_format="spans")
print("Przewidywania:", predictions)

# Przewidywania: [{'start': 9, 'end': 19, 'confidence': 0.93, 'text': ' również zaawansowane równania matematyczne opisujące ruch satelitów, które zostały wykorzystane w XX wieku w programie kosmicznym NASA.'}]

Performance

Results on Translated RAGTruth-PL

We evaluate our Polish models on translated versions of the RAGTruth dataset. The EuroBERT-210M Polish model achieves an F1 score of 66.46%, significantly outperforming prompt-based methods like GPT-4.1-mini (59.27%).

For detailed performance metrics across different languages, see the table below:

Language	Model	Precision (%)	Recall (%)	F1 (%)	GPT-4.1-mini F1 (%)	Δ F1 (%)
Polish	EuroBERT-210M	63.62	69.57	66.46	59.27	+7.19
Polish	EuroBERT-610M	77.16	69.36	73.05	59.27	+13.78

While the 610M variant achieves higher performance, the 210M model offers a good balance between accuracy and computational efficiency, processing examples approximately 3× faster.

Manual Validation

We performed additional validation on a manually reviewed set of 100 examples covering diverse task types (QA, summarization, data-to-text). The EuroBERT-210M Polish model maintained strong performance with an F1 score of 68.32% on this curated dataset.

Model	Precision (%)	Recall (%)	F1 (%)
EuroBERT-210M	68.32	68.32	68.32
