Synthetic Data

Overview​

Explore synthetic data use in AGENT with this tutorial, where we guide you through generating and using synthetic datasets for secure data analysis. Synthetic data is a pivotal resource for secure data analysis when original data cannot be used directly. This video walks you through generating synthetic data using different methods, including marginal distributions and neural network-based approaches like GANs.
