arXiv:2607.03346v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate and efficient dataset valuation is essential for enabling fair and transparent data marketplaces, especially when multiple contributors provide data for training multi-task models. Most existing valuation methods, however, are limited to single-task settings, overlooking scenarios where a buyer aims to optimize performance across multiple downstream tasks. Moreover, traditional valuation approaches, such as Shapley-based or retraining-based methods, are computationally expensive and poorly suited for decentralized environments without
The proliferation of multi-task AI models and increasing demands for fair data compensation in decentralized environments drive the need for efficient dataset valuation methods.
This development addresses a critical barrier to transparent and efficient data marketplaces, which are essential for scaling AI development and fostering data-driven innovation across various sectors.
The ability to accurately and efficiently value data for multi-task AI models in decentralized settings will enable new economic models for data exchange and ownership.

- · Monopolistic data holders relying on opaque pricing
- · Inefficient AI development pipelines
- · Traditional data valuation service providers
More equitable compensation for data providers and better-trained multi-task AI models result from improved valuation efficiency.
The growth of decentralized data marketplaces could democratize access to high-quality training data, fostering innovation outside of major tech companies.
New legal and regulatory frameworks emerge to standardize and govern the valuation and exchange of data assets globally, impacting data sovereignty discussions.
