Large language models (LLMs) have been increasingly applied across a wide range of domains. However, recent studies have identified the presence of certain glitch tokens in their vocabularies, which can trigger hallucinations and lead to unpredictable or even harmful outputs. While various methods have been proposed to detect such tokens, effectively repairing them remains a key challenge for ensuring the reliability of LLMs. In this work, we propose GlitchCleaner, a lightweight yet effective approach to mitigate the adverse effects caused by glitch tokens. GlitchCleaner introduces auxiliary branches into specific components within selected layers of the model, enabling efficient and targeted token repair. These branches are implemented using the low-rank adaptation (LoRA) technique, adding less than 0.1\% additional parameters to the original model. Furthermore, a gating mechanism dynamically controls the activation of these branches based on the model’s input, ensuring precise intervention without disrupting normal inference behavior. Experimental results across multiple mainstream models demonstrate that our method achieves an average repair rate of 86.88\%, representing an improvement of over 30\% compared to existing approaches, while ensuring lossless preservation of the model’s baseline capabilities and causing negligible impact on inference speed.
