# oumi-ai/HallOumi-8B-classifier
<!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->
Introducing **HallOumi-8B-classifier**, a _fast_ **SOTA hallucination detection model**, outperforming DeepSeek R1, OpenAI o1, Google Gemini 1.5 Pro, and Claude Sonnet 3.5 at only **8 billion parameters!**
Give HallOumi a try now!
* Demo: https://oumi.ai/halloumi-demo
* Github: https://github.com/oumi-ai/oumi/tree/main/configs/projects/halloumi
| Model | Macro F1 Score | Open? | Model Size |
| --------------------- | -------------- | ----------------- | ---------- |
| **HallOumi-8B** | **77.2% ± 2.2%** | Truly Open Source | 8B |
| Claude Sonnet 3.5 | 69.6% ± 2.8% | Closed | ?? |
| OpenAI o1-preview | 65.9% ± 2.3% | Closed | ?? |
| DeepSeek R1 | 61.6% ± 2.5% | Open Weights | 671B |
| Llama 3.1 405B | 58.8% ± 2.4% | Open Weights | 405B |
| Google Gemini 1.5 Pro | 48.2% ± 1.8% | Closed | ?? |
**HallOumi-8B-classifier**, the hallucination classification model built with Oumi, is an end-to-end binary classification system that enables *fast and accurate* assessment of the hallucination probability of any written content (AI or human-generated).
* ✔️ Fast with high accuracy
* ✔️ Per-claim support (must call once per claim)
## Hallucinations
Hallucinations are often cited as the most important issue with being able to deploy generative models in numerous commercial and personal applications, and for good reason:
* [Lawyers sanctioned for briefing where ChatGPT cited 6 fictitious cases](https://www.reuters.com/legal/new-york-lawyers-sanctioned-using-fake-chatgpt-cases-legal-brief-2023-06-22/)
* [Air Canada required to honor refund policy made up by its AI support chatbot](https://www.wired.com/story/air-canada-chatbot-refund-policy/)
* [AI suggesting users should make glue pizza and eat rocks](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cd11gzejgz4o)
It ultimately comes down to an issue of **trust** — generative models are trained to produce outputs which are **probabilistically likely**, but not necessarily **true**.
While such tools are useful in the right hands, being unable to trust them prevents AI from being adopted more broadly,
where it can be utilized safely and responsibly.
## Building Trust with Verifiability
To be able to begin trusting AI systems, we have to be able to verify their outputs. To verify, we specifically mean that we need to:
* Understand the **truthfulness** of a particular statement produced by any model (the key focus of **HallOumi-8B-classifier** model).
* Understand what **information supports that statement’s truth** and have **full traceability** connecting the statement to that information (provided by our *generative* [HallOumi model](https://huggingface.co/oumi-ai/HallOumi-8B))

## Uses
<!-- Address questions around how the model is intended to be used, including the foreseeable users and those affected by the model. -->
Use to verify claims/detect hallucinations in scenarios where a known source of truth is available.
Demo: https://oumi.ai/halloumi-demo
## Out-of-Scope Use
<!-- This section addresses misuse, malicious use, and uses that the model will not work well for. -->
Smaller LLMs have limited capabilities and should be used with caution. Avoid using this model for purposes outside of claim verification.
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
<!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->
This model was finetuned with Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct data on top of a Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct model, so any biases or risks associated with those models may be present.
## Training Details
### Training Data
