In exemplary aspects, a golden data structure can be used to validate the stability of machine learning (ML) models and weights. The golden data structure includes golden input data and corresponding golden output data. The golden output data represents the known correct results that should be output by a ML model when it is run with the golden input data as inputs. The golden data structure can be stored in a secure memory and retrieved for validation separately or together with the deployment of the ML model for a requested ML operation. If the golden data structure is used to validate the model and/or weights concurrently with the performance of the requested operation, the golden input data is combined with the input data for the requested operation and run through the model. Relevant outputs are compared with the golden output data to validate the stability of the model and weights.
