WeShap: Weak Supervision Source Evaluation with Shapley Values
Summary: WeShap applies Shapley values to quantify weak-supervision source contributions, enabling diagnosis of helpful, harmful, and mislabeled outputs. A dynamic-programming algorithm computes scores in quadratic time and improves downstream accuracy by 5 points through pipeline revision. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
