Sufficient constraints to prevent spoofed declarations in partial re-execution

Identify and validate a set of constraints for partial workload re-execution protocols (including proof-of-learning style checks) that are sufficient to rule out spoofed training or inference declarations for large-scale AI workloads.

Background

Partial re-execution aims to verify that declared workloads were actually run by re-running sampled segments and checking reproducibility. To prevent adversaries from fabricating plausible but false declarations, the report proposes adding constraints (e.g., randomness, timing, and trend-consistency checks).

The authors note that while many constraints are plausible, establishing which sets are actually sufficient to preclude spoofs remains unresolved.

Various constraints could be applied, though it is unclear which constraints will be sufficient to rule out spoofs.
