There are four prominent detection techniques for RAG systems: LLM prompt-based detectors (using an LLM to judge groundedness with >75% accuracy), semantic similarity detectors (comparing embeddings of response vs. context), BERT stochastic checkers (fine-tuned BERT for hallucination classification), and token similarity detectors (lexical overlap analysis).
