A Comparison of SynDiffix Multi-table versus Single-table Synthetic Data
<|reference_start|>A Comparison of SynDiffix Multi-table versus Single-table Synthetic Data: SynDiffix is a new open-source tool for structured data synthesis. It has anonymization features that allow it to generate multiple synthetic tables while maintaining strong anonymity. Compared to the more common single-table approach, multi-table leads to more accurate data, since only the features of interest for a given analysis need be synthesized. This paper compares SynDiffix with 15 other commercial and academic synthetic data techniques using the SDNIST analysis framework, modified by us to accommodate multi-table synthetic data. The results show that SynDiffix is many times more accurate than other approaches for low-dimension tables, but somewhat worse than the best single-table techniques for high-dimension tables.<|reference_end|>
