Although Federated Learning (FL) offers significant potential for developing model marketplaces through collaborative training and privacy preservation, challenges such as insufficient training data and arbitrage issues severely impede the development of FL-based model marketplaces. Existing studies either lack satisfactory security guarantees or are too profit-driven to address potential arbitrage issues. In this paper, we propose a novel Personalized prIvacy-prEserving inCentive mEchanism named PIECE, with the aim of achieving social optimality while avoiding arbitrage. Specifically, we first formulate a dual-objective optimization problem to simultaneously maximize social utility and model performance while ensuring arbitrage-free conditions through differential privacy. Due to dynamic model training and heterogeneous privacy budgets that complicate the design of arbitrage-free properties, we model the transformation between local and global privacy requirements across scenarios as a privacy choice game. This game guarantees the identification of a constraint to generate desired model versions based on Nash equilibrium. Next, by generalizing the properties of different data-owner groups under equilibrium conditions, we prove that the dual-objective optimization problem is always conflict-free, thus allowing transformation into a social optimal problem without arbitrage. Furthermore, to tackle the significant difficulty in characterizing the model revenue and interpolating ...
