报告摘要：
Synthetic data generation serves as a powerful tool for sharing and analyzing data while preserving the privacy of individuals. In this talk, we will explore the cutting-edge techniques in synthetic data generation with a focus on maintaining differential privacy. Our discussion will be divided into two main parts. The first part introduces PRIVIMAGE for private image generation. PRIVIMAGE uses a semantic query function to select pre-training data, enhancing training stability and conserving computational resources. The second part introduces GlucoSynth for private time-series data (glucose trace) generation. The core idea of GlucoSynth is to effectively maintain relationships among glucose events and temporal dynamics.
