The Generalized Group Data Attribution (GGDA) framework is introduced to simplify data attribution methods for large-scale machine learning models. Existing methods are often computationally intensive, but GGDA attributes influence to groups of training points instead of individual ones, providing a trade-off between efficiency and fidelity. The framework subsumes existing attribution methods like Influence Functions, TracIn, and TRAK, allowing users to optimize based on their needs. Empirical results demonstrate speedups of up to 10x-50x over standard DA methods while maintaining effectiveness in applications such as dataset pruning and noisy label identification.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
GGDA is a new way to figure out how individual pieces of training data affect machine learning models. Right now, these methods are too slow for big models, but GGDA makes them faster by grouping together similar pieces of data. This means you can use these methods on bigger models without it taking forever. It’s like getting more bang for your buck!
