Synthetic Data for Machine Learning Applications

Talkat PyCon.DE 2017 · 2017-10-25..10-27· [machine-learning, data-visualization]

The talk explains using FEM simulations plus unsupervised methods to create labeled synthetic training data for pipeline anomaly risk models, and argues these synthetics boost performance only if the ‘synthetic gap’ is measured and mitigated. Practical checks include using t-SNE to inspect manifolds and training classifiers to distinguish real vs generated samples, and it warns that mixing synthetic and real data improperly across cross‑validation folds and test sets biases evaluation—so folds must be constructed carefully.
