ICML paper on predictable hallucination gate and ntkMirror open-weight implementation

Our ICML paper on predictable hallucination (information-budget abstention gate), + ntkMirror: a training-free open-weight implementation we're releasing today

An ICML 2026 paper presents an ISR=1 answer-abstain gate for evidence-grounded QA, and ntkMirror implements it for local open-weight models with multiple evidence orderings, reporting 0.0–0.7% hallucination at about 24% abstention in the held-out audit.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: an ICML paper with an open implementation, a concrete ISR=1 gate, and measured abstention-vs-hallucination tradeoff. Scope stays within evidence QA/RAG reliability, so it sits below must-write level.
