New DUI method quantifies dataset usage without shadow models

A new framework for Dataset Usage Inference (DUI) has been proposed, which aims to determine the proportion of a dataset used in training a machine learning model without requiring shadow models or held-out data. This method generates synthetic non-member samples and frames DUI as a mixture proportion estimation problem. Experiments on large image generative models demonstrate its effectiveness in quantifying dataset usage, offering a practical solution for data owners. AI

IMPACT Provides a practical tool for data owners to determine data usage in ML models, potentially impacting data licensing and privacy.

    Dataset Usage Inference without Shadow Models or Held-out Data

    arXiv:2606.26257v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How much of my data was used to train a machine learning model? Dataset Usage Inference (DUI) aims to answer this by estimating what fraction of a dataset contributed to a model's training. However, existing DUI methods rely on assu…
