An investigation of licensing of datasets for machine learning based on the GQM model
share
Dataset licensing is currently an issue in the development of machine learning systems. And in the development of machine learning systems, the most widely used are publicly available datasets. However, since the images in the publicly available dataset are mainly obtained from the Internet, some images are not commercially available. Furthermore, developers of machine learning systems do not often care about the license of the dataset when training machine learning models with it. In summary, the licensing of datasets for machine learning systems is in a state of incompleteness in all aspects at this stage. Our investigation of two collection datasets revealed that most of the current datasets lacked licenses, and the lack of licenses made it impossible to determine the commercial availability of the datasets. Therefore, we decided to take a more scientific and systematic approach to investigate the licensing of datasets and the licensing of machine learning systems that use the dataset to make it easier and more compliant for future developers of machine learning systems.
