Abstract
As the amount of data created and stored by organizations continues to increase, attention is turning to extracting knowledge from that raw data, including making some data available outside of the organization to enable crowd analytics. The adoption of the MapReduce paradigm has made processing Big Data more accessible, but is still limited to data that is currently available, often only within an organization. Fine-grained control over what information is shared outside an organization is difficult to achieve with Big Data, particularly in the MapReduce model. We introduce a novel approach to sharing that enables fine-grained control over what data is shared. Users submit analytics tasks that run on infrastructure near the actual data, reducing network bottlenecks. Organizations allow access to a logical version of their data created at runtime by filtering and transforming the actual data without creating storage-intensive stale copies, and resellers can further segment or augment this data to provide added value to analytics tasks. A loosely-coupled ecosystem driven by web services allows for discovery and sharing with a flexible, secure environment that limits the knowledge those running analytics need to have about the actual provider of the data. We describe a proof-of-concept implementation of the various components required to realize this ecosystem, and present a set of experiments to demonstrate feasibility, showing advantageous performance versus storage trade-offs.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
