Measuring LLM trust allocation across conflicting software artifacts to improve model reliability

advanced Published 7 Apr 2026
Action Steps
  1. Identify conflicting software artifacts such as code, documentation, and tests
  2. Develop a framework to evaluate LLM trust allocation across these artifacts
  3. Implement TRACE (Trust Reasoning over Artifacts for Calibration and Evaluation) to measure and calibrate trust
  4. Analyze results to improve model performance and reliability

Title: Measuring LLM Trust Allocation Across Conflicting Software Artifacts

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.03447v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-based software engineering assistants fail not only by producing incorrect outputs, but also by allocating trust to the wrong artifact when code, documentation, and tests disagree. Existing evaluations focus mainly on downstream outcomes and therefore cannot reveal whether a model recognized degraded evidence, identified the unreliable source, or calibrated its trust across artifacts. We present TRACE (Trust Reasoning over Artifacts for Calib
