Confidence Reasoning Graphs: Structured Confidence Estimation for LLM Agents

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.07948v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When using an LLM agent in a consequential domain, making an informed decision about whether to trust its output or intervene requires calibrated confidence in the agent's success. Confidence estimation for agents is difficult because evidence about success is distributed across heterogeneous, interdependent steps of an agent's trajectory. Practical agentic deployments introduce further challenges: frontier LLMs often provide limited access to in
