Abstract
With the rapid development of machine learning applications on time-series data, accurately assessing the value of training samples has become essential for data selection, noise detection, and model optimization. However, traditional data valuation methods usually assume that samples are independent and identically distributed, and thus ignore the time-varying nature of sample value in time-series data. This paper proposes an improved temporal Shapley data valuation method that enables accurate sample valuation for time-series data through a temporal decay mechanism and a multi-scale fusion strategy. Specifically, we propose three progressively enhanced temporal Shapley methods. Temporal-Decay Shapley (TDS) incorporates temporal information into Shapley value computation through exponential decay weights; the improved TDS adopts power exponential decay to better adapt to nonlinear…
