Verify, Then Vote: Multi-Model Consensus via Source Verification

Instead of simple majority voting, this method uses Claude 3.5 Sonnet to verify the specific citations provided by five local models (Llama 3.2 3B, Mistral 7B, Gemma 2 2B, Phi-3 mini, and Qwen 2.5 3B). The approach mitigates shared model errors by enforcing rule-based source checking.
