Synthetic Data: Development Status and Prospects for Military Applications

In the current booming big data boom, many fields still face the problem of data scarcity. Synthetic data, as a new technology in the field of big data, not only tries to retain the main features of the original data for analysis, but also tries to avoid containing information that may cause privacy leakage. Synthetic data provides a new solution for the problems of data security sharing and artificial intelligence training. This paper summarizes the main methods, performance evaluation indexes and application of synthetic data, looks forward to its military application prospect, and puts forward the preliminary idea of military application of synthetic data, which provides reference for the research in related fields.
