Mitigating spatial hallucination in large language models for path planning via prompt engineering by Hongjie Zhang, Hourui Deng, Jie Ou, Chaosheng Feng

“…We introduce three key improvements: (1) To tackle the hallucination of spatial, we extract a graph structure of entities and relations from the text-based maze description, aiding LLMs in accurately comprehending spatial relationships. (2) To prevent LLMs from getting trapped in dead ends due to context inconsistency hallucination by long-term reasoning, we insert the state-action value function Q into the prompts, guiding the LLM’s path planning. (3) To reduce the token consumption of LLMs, we utilize multi-step reasoning, dynamically inserting local Q-tables into the prompt to assist the LLM in outputting multiple steps of actions at once. …”
