Abstract
Duplicated data storage wastes memory resources and brings extra data-management load and cost to cloud service providers (CSPs). Various feasible schemes to deduplicate encrypted cloud data have been reported. However, their successful deployment in practice depends on whether all system players or stakeholders are willing to accept and execute them in a cooperative way, which was scarcely investigated in the previous literature. In this paper, we employ a noncooperative game to model the interactions in a client-side server-controlled deduplication scheme (S-DEDU) and construct an incentive mechanism based on payment discount to motivate its final acceptance. The experimental results based on a real-world dataset demonstrate the individual rationality, incentive compatibility, profitability, and robustness of our incentive mechanism.

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
