arXiv:2606.11761v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dynamic data pruning techniques aim to reduce computational cost while minimizing information loss by periodically selecting representative subsets of input data during model training. However, existing methods often struggle to maintain strong worst-group accuracy, particularly at high pruning rates, across balanced and imbalanced datasets. To address this challenge, we propose RCAP, a Robust, Class-Aware, Probabilistic dynamic dataset pruning algorithm for classification tasks. RCAP applies a closed-form solution to estimate the fraction of sam
The increasing computational demands of AI model training necessitate more efficient data handling techniques to optimize resource utilization and reduce costs, particularly with the rise of increasingly large datasets.
Improving data pruning efficiency directly impacts the cost and speed of AI development, making advanced AI training more accessible and less resource-intensive, which is crucial for competitive advantage in AI.
This advancement offers a new method for dataset pruning that prioritizes robust performance and class balance, potentially leading to more reliable and equitable AI models, especially in scenarios with imbalanced data.
