Assess synthetic data utility

Evaluating the quality of synthetic data involves measuring how accurately the generated data retains the statistical properties of the original dataset. This assessment shows that the synthetic data reflects the same patterns, distributions, and correlations as the real data.

Privacy protection matrix
Privacy protection matrix

Privacy protection metrics measure the protection of the generated synthetic data in terms of privacy, offering a clear assessment of how well sensitive information is protected in the generated data.

Data sharing
Data sharing

When synthetic data is shared externally, a privacy evaluation is required to verify that privacy metrics meet defined thresholds. These thresholds help reduce re-identification risks to an acceptable minimum.

Introduction to quality assurance report

Synthetic data utility metrics

Distributions

Synthetic Data Distributions in comparison to real data

Distributions illustrate the frequency of variables within given categories or values and are accurately captured by the Syntho Engine.

Correlations

Synthetic Data Distributions in comparison to real data

Correlations show the relationship between variables, illustrating the degree to which variables are related. The Syntho Engine accurately captures these relationships.

Multivariates

Synthetic Data Multivariate Distributions in comparison to real data

Multivariate distributions and multivariate correlations take us beyond singular dimensions, providing a comprehensive view of how multiple variables are related. The Syntho Engine captures these relations.

Industry-standard synthetic data privacy metrics

Example industry-standard metrics for evaluating privacy and fairness

Disclosure

Disclosure protection

Demonstration that there is no risk of disclosing sensitive information about specific, sensitive columns in your dataset.

Considers information disclosure

Overfitting protection

Distance to Closest Record (DCR)

Demonstration by measuring the distance between the real and synthetic data, that your synthetic data doesn’t too closely match the real data.

Considers overfitting

Fairness

Fairness (Equalized Odds)

Demonstration that the synthetic data improves fairness when it comes to predicting value. Equalized odds particularly looks at the true positive rate (TPR) and false positive rate (FPR) of any predictions you’re trying to make.

01
Deploy Syntho’s QA notebook as separate module

The QA Report is offered in a separate module so it will be:
– Always up to date
– Adapt to evolving quality standards
– Only applied when relevant, since not all datasets or use cases require the same level of quality assurance.

02
A QA report can be generated on-demand
03
You can export and share the report

Frequently Asked Questions

What is data utility?

Data utility refers to how well a dataset meets the needs of its intended use. It encompasses accuracy, completeness, consistency, reliability, and relevance. High-quality data is accurate and free from errors, inconsistencies, or duplications, demonstrating that it can be effectively used for analysis, decision-making, and operational purposes.

What is synthetic data utility?

Synthetic data quality pertains to how closely synthetic datasets mimic real-world data’s statistical properties and characteristics. It evaluates the fidelity of the generated data, including its accuracy, reliability, and relevance, demonstrating that synthetic data is a valid substitute for actual data in various applications.

What is a quality assurance report?

It is a synthetic data quality evaluation displayed in quality assurance and demonstrates the accuracy, privacy, and speed of the synthetic data compared to the original data. It provides a detailed analysis of the synthetic dataset, including metrics for accuracy, privacy, and performance, indicating that the data meets high standards.

Why do we provide a quality assurance report for every generated synthetic data set?

At Syntho, we understand the importance of reliable and accurate synthetic data. That’s why we provide a comprehensive quality assurance report for every synthetic data run. Our quality report includes various metrics such as distributions, correlations, multivariate distributions, privacy metrics, and more. This way, you can easily assess that the synthetic data we provide is of the highest quality and can be used with the same level of accuracy and reliability as your original data.

What do we assess in our quality assurance report?

Our quality assurance report evaluates:

  • Accuracy: How closely the synthetic data matches the statistical properties of the original data.
  • Privacy: Measures taken to ensure sensitive information is protected and not disclosed.
  • Speed: The efficiency of the synthetic data generation process and its performance in real-time applications.
Why are synthetic data privacy metrics relevant?

Synthetic data privacy metrics are crucial because they asses if generated data does not reveal sensitive or personally identifiable information.
