Using AI to Generate Synthetic Data
AI can be used to generate synthetic data in order to rebalance consumer datasets and make them more reflective of the US population. This is particularly useful when the available data is insufficient or imbalanced, which can affect the efficacy of machine learning models. Tonic.ai is a company that specializes in generating fake data to address these challenges. By training a generative model on an existing dataset, synthetic data can be generated, including rare or minority cases. This synthetic data can be used to augment the original dataset and improve the classification scores of algorithms.
