METHOD, APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR IDENTIFYING AND COMPENSATING CONTENT CONTRIBUTORS

摘要

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to incentivize crowd sourcing of data by identifying and compensating content contributors based on a value of the content to training a neural network. Methods may include: receiving a request for a machine learning model trained from training data received from a plurality of data contributors, where the training data identified a contributor having provided the respective training data; processing the request for the machine learning model to infer a result based on a subset of training data relevant to the request; identifying one or more data contributors that provided the subset of training data relevant to the request; and providing compensation to the one or more data contributors that provided the subset of training data.
