ReuScope：审计 Capsule Vision 2024 中的数据复用与评估敏感性

arXiv:2610.41835v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop ReuScope, a protocol for auditing data reuse and evaluation sensitivity, using Capsule Vision 2024 as a case study. It combines measurements of data relationships with two comparisons: changing the evaluation population while holding predictions fixed, and changing training data while holding evaluation fixed. Byte-identical files cross the public training-validation boundary, and all 41 Kvasir-Capsule recordings that contribute frames occur in both partitions. Shared source recordings establish cross-split overlap; missing cross-recording patient identifiers prevent counting unique shared patients. Across ten paired seeds, removing all training rows attributed to Kvasir-Capsule, plus five rows from other sources flagged as near-matches to it, lowers public-validation balanced accuracy from 82.5% to 61.2%. Evaluating the same fitted models on the validation rows of the other sources reverses the comparison: removal improves balanced accuracy by 1.38 percentage points. The public-validation drop measures sensitivity to source removal, not an amount of leakage-induced inflation. Matched controls show that sample size and class counts alone do not explain the observed score differences. An exploratory experiment removes the training neighbors of validation frames that have close training matches, or equally many distant training rows, and yields a difference-in-differences estimate, relative to matched unflagged frames, of -0.355 percentage points in true-class probability; the paired-t interval for accuracy spans zero. The resulting procedure distinguishes observed reuse from conditional performance sensitivity and specifies the population, class support and uncertainty unit for each conclusion.
