Creating High-Quality Synthetic Health Data: Framework for Model Development and Validation.

We have presented a generative model for producing synthetic longitudinal health data. The model is formulated by applying the GCP tensor decomposition. We have provided 3 approaches for the synthesis and simulation of a latent factor matrix following the process of factorization. In brief, we have reduced the challenge of synthesizing massive longitudinal health data to synthesizing a nonlongitudinal and significantly smaller data set.
