用扩散Transformer生成跨表健康数据,解决多源异构表格合成难题

Generating Benchmark Health Data Using a Tabular Diffusion Transformer

  • 先统一分解异构表为标准统计表,再用扩散Transformer生成
  • 生成数据在真实性和多样性上表现优异,可无限生成新表
  • 适合医疗等多源异构数据合成,尤其适用于隐私保护场景

跨表格数据生成(CTDG)旨在从多个异构表格中学习生成模型并创建新的合成表格数据集。然而现有方法大多局限于单表输入,难以有效处理具有不同特征集的多源异构表格。为此,本文提出一种两阶段跨表格生成框架:第一阶段将每个异构原始表格转换为包含统一列集的标准统计表,每张统计表捕捉原始列的边缘分布及两两相关性;第二阶段训练一个扩散变压器模型,学习这些同质统计表间的结构模式,并生成合成统计表。随后通过多元高斯采样结合逆概率积分变换,从生成的统计表重构出合成原始表格。该两阶段框架可从多个异构表中学习统一生成模型,支持无限生成逼真的异构合成表。实验表明,所学统计表示具有高保真度,生成数据在真实性和多样性间取得良好平衡,验证了方法的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Cross-Tabular Data Generation (CTDG) seeks to learn a generative model from multiple heterogeneous tables and produce new synthetic tabular datasets. However, existing synthetic tabular data generation methods are largely restricted to single-input-table scenarios and struggle to effectively handle multiple heterogeneous tables with diverse feature sets. To address this limitation, we propose a two-stage framework for cross-tabular data generation. In the first stage, each heterogeneous raw table is transformed into a standardized statistical table with the same set of columns across all tables. Each statistical table captures the marginal distributions of the original columns and the pairwise correlations among them. In the second stage, a diffusion transformer model is trained to capture structural patterns across these homogeneous statistical tables and to generate synthetic statistical tables. Synthetic raw tables are subsequently reconstructed from the generated statistical tables via multivariate Gaussian sampling followed by an inverse probability integral transform. This two-stage CTDG framework enables the learning of a unified generative model from multiple heterogeneous tables and supports the generation of an unlimited number of realistic synthetic heterogeneous tables. Experimental results demonstrate high fidelity in the learned statistical representations and a favorable fidelity-diversity trade-off in the generated synthetic data, validating the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
