Researchers have developed new algorithms for calculating Data Shapley values in weighted k-nearest-neighbor (KNN) regression and soft-label prediction. Previously, exact calculations for these scenarios were computationally infeasible, relying on brute-force methods that were exponential in complexity. The new methods include a pseudo-polynomial-time exact algorithm and a certified fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for continuous weights, offering deterministic results and certified error bounds. These advancements are crucial for accurately assessing the value of training data points in complex machine learning models and have been released as an open-source library. AI
