Synthesis Without Training: An Inference-Only Pipeline for Tabular, Temporal, and Relational Synthetic Data

GENSCRIPT is an inference‑only pipeline that generates synthetic data without training a generative model. It creates a deterministic statistical profile of the source data, uses a language model to infer field semantics and cross‑column constraints, and then compiles these into an executable sampler that works for single‑table, temporal, and relational data. The method builds generators in minutes, samples large datasets quickly, and achieves fidelity comparable to leading methods while preserving key data relationships such as 1‑to‑1 mappings and primary‑foreign key constraints.

CoMedBench: A Multi-Source Benchmark of Synthetic Medical Data Fidelity and Downstream Utility

arXiv:2608. 12805v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Access to clinical data is essential for developing reliable healthcare machine learning systems, but direct use of electronic health records is constrained by privacy regulation, institutional review, data-use agreements, and the risk of re-identification.

From Synthetic Priors to Model Behavior: Structural Coverage in Tabular Foundation Models

The paper investigates how synthetic pretraining priors used in tabular foundation models (TFMs) influence downstream performance. By reconstructing the synthetic data generators of four TFMs and comparing their generated tasks to two popular tabular benchmarks using structural descriptors, the authors measure structural coverage and normalized density. They find that some generators provide broader and denser support for benchmark tasks, and that stronger synthetic-to-benchmark support generally correlates with better model performance.

General Demographic Pre-trained Models for Enhancing Predictive Performance Across Diseases and Population

The paper introduces the General Demographic Pre-trained (GDP) model, a lightweight foundation model that learns representations from the two most common clinical attributes—age and sex. By optimizing encoding and visit‑reordering strategies, GDP embeddings are shown to improve predictive performance when concatenated with raw features across various disease and geographic cohorts. The model outperforms several state‑of‑the‑art tabular foundation models and tree‑based algorithms, demonstrating that enriched demographic embeddings can enhance classification tasks while remaining fully compatible with standard classifiers.

SynPre-FL: Synthetic data-driven pretraining integrated Federated Learning training framework

arXiv:2607. 19524v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning (FL) offers a promising approach to privacy-preserving clinical risk prediction, but its deployment remains limited by restricted data sharing, client heterogeneity, class imbalance, and the lack of realistic tabular electronic health record (EHR) benchmarks.
