arXiv:2502.04554v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Data selection has emerged as a crucial downstream application of data valuation, yet the theoretical foundations for using data values in selection remain underexplored. We reformulate data selection as a sequential decision-making problem where the optimal selection sequence arises from dynamic programming, and data values can be understood as encodings of this optimal sequence. This framework unifies and reinterprets existing methods like Data Shapley through the lens of approximate dynamic programming, revealing them as myopic linear appr
