New Gram determinant score assesses dataset reliability without ground truth

Researchers have introduced a novel method called the Gram determinant score to assess dataset reliability without needing ground truth data. This score measures the volume spanned by vectors representing the empirical distribution of observed data and experiment outcomes. Experiments on synthetic data, CIFAR-10 embeddings, and real employment data indicate that the Gram determinant score effectively captures data quality across various observation processes, maintaining reliability rankings regardless of the specific experiment.

IMPACT Provides a new metric for evaluating data quality in AI model training without ground truth, potentially improving model robustness.

    Data Reliability Scoring

    arXiv:2510.17085v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: How can we assess the reliability of a dataset without access to ground truth? We introduce the problem of reliability scoring for datasets collected from potentially strategic sources. The true data are unobserved, but we see o…
