Aligning LLM Uncertainty with Human Disagreement in Subjectivity Analysis

ArXi:2605.10415v2 Announce Type: replace Large language models for subjectivity analysis are typically trained with aggregated labels, which compress variations in human judgment into a single supervision signal. This paradigm overlooks the intrinsic uncertainty of low-agreement samples and often induces overconfident predictions, undermining reliability and generalization in complex subjective settings. In this work, we advocate uncertainty-aware subjectivity analysis, where models are expected to make predictions while expressing uncertainty that reflects human disagreement.
