Model assetCognitionCognition & Memoryarc:VerifierModel
Model weights fine-tuned on labeled correct and incorrect reasoning steps to judge reasoning correctness in a specific domain.
Responsibility. Encodes learned domain-specific judgments of reasoning-step correctness.
Also known as: Fine-tuned verifier
Relationships
deployed on structural
is trained by lifecycle
- Fine-Tuning Pipeline abstract Ch3.6
Design guidance
- SHOULD be trained on high-quality annotations explaining why steps are correct or incorrect, optionally mixed with synthetic data with known labels.
Quantitative guidance
As stated by the sources; verify before use.
- Healthcare case: additional training data raised detection of hallucinated symptoms to 94% (Ch3.6).
Classification
- Quality attributes
- Functional suitability: correctness and validity (ISO/IEC 25010 | NIST AI RMF: valid)
