## Abstract (arXiv)

Large scale document deduplication must preserve semantic equivalence while remaining efficient over massive corpora. We present SemHash LLM, a multi granularity framework that unifies semantic projection hashing, attention weighted MinHash, contrastive boundary learning, and selective LLM based adjudication. The method combines character, token, and document level signals through gated fusion, then applies a cascaded filtering pipeline for efficient candidate reduction. Semantic projection hashing learns compact binary codes in distilled LLM embedding space, while attention weighted Min- Hash suppresses boilerplate and emphasizes informative content. Adaptive decision boundaries and uncertainty estimation further improve robustness across template pollution, short text perturbation, containment, and viral fragments. Experiments show that SemHash LLM achieves strong duplicate detection quality with less than one percent neural verification cost.
