Data Synthesis based on Generative Adversarial Networks

Summary: table-GAN synthesizes tabular data with GANs, preserving distribution while avoiding leakage. It shows model compatibility: synthetic data enables models to approach real-data performance, beating anonymization/perturbation across four real datasets. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
