Google patents method for choosing better training data for AI models

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

Google describes a system that tests an initial AI model using simulated scenarios to determine how much data is needed for the next version. If the tests pass, the system gathers a larger dataset with more detailed information to train a new, improved model.

Why it mattersThis process helps developers ensure their AI models are built on sufficient and high-quality data, potentially leading to more accurate results in media analysis.

In the filing’s own words

Simulation data associated with a simulation test performed with respect to a first set of training data is obtained. Responsive to a determination that the obtained simulation data satisfies one or more criteria, a second set of training data is obtained, where a size of the second set of training data meets or exceeds a size of the first set of training data. A machine learning model is trained using the second set of training data.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method comprising: obtaining a first machine learning model trained using a first set of training data, wherein one or more training data items of the first set of training data reflect at least a first attribute of a respective media content item; executing one or more simulation tests using the first machine learning model to generate one or more simulation outputs comprising a performance of the first machine learning model trained using the first set of training data; obtaining a second set of training data to train a second machine learning model, wherein: (i) the second set of training data includes a number of training data items corresponding to a minimum training data set size based on the one or more simulation outputs and a size of the first set of training data, and (ii) the second set of training data comprises the one or more training data items of the first set of training data and one or more additional training data items reflecting one or more second attributes of the respective media content item, the one or more second attributes providing an increased level of granularity with respect to the respective media content item; and causing the second machine learning model to be trained using the second set of training data.
