Leveraging large language models to generate synthetic tabular data
Leveraging large language models to generate synthetic tabular data LLMs and synthetic data Reading time: 7 minutes The constant evolution of artificial intelligence is opening up exciting new perspectives in the field of natural language processing (NLP). At the heart of this technological revolution are Large Language Models (LLMs), deep learning models capable of understanding and generating text remarkably fluently and accurately. These LLMs have attracted considerable interest and become key players in many applications. However, little research has been carried out on using such a model to generate synthetic tabular data, despite its generative nature. Synthetic data generation is becoming an indispensable tool for various industries and domains. Whether for reasons of confidentiality, data access, cost or limited quantity, the ability to generate reliable, high-quality synthetic data can have a significant impact. Follow us to find out how LLM can become a major asset for the generation of synthetic tabular data. What is an LLM and how does it work? Large language models (LLMs) are revolutionizing our interaction with natural language, as artificial intelligence models, often in the form of transformers. They are based on deep neural networks, trained with a vast corpus of Internet texts. This training enables them to achieve an unprecedented level of understanding of human language. Capable of performing a variety of linguistic tasks, such as translating, answering complex questions or composing paragraphs, LLMs prove to be extremely versatile. GPT-3, with its 175 billion parameters, illustrates the power of these models, positioning itself as one of the most advanced LLMs to date. LLMs take into account the context of a sentence and develop in-depth knowledge of the syntax and subtleties of language. They aim to predict the most likely sequence of words given the current context, using advanced statistical techniques. In other words, they calculate the probability of words and word sequences in a specific context. In the generation of synthetic data, the major advantage of LLMs lies in their ability to model complex data structures. They identify hierarchical information and interdependencies between different terms, mimicking the patterns found in real datasets. This ability to grasp complex relationships significantly enhances the quality of the synthetic data produced. Yet to date, few studies have exploited LLMs for the creation of synthetic tabular data. The question remains: how can a model originally designed for text create a realistic structured dataset with the appropriate columns and rows? Let’s see how LLMs can be used to generate high-quality synthetic tabular data from a real dataset. Modeling tabular data distributions with GReaTLLMs and synthetic data Generating synthetic tabular data from a real database that is both realistic and preserves the consistency of the original dataset is the challenge taken up by GReaT (Generation of Realistic Tabular data). GReaT exploits a generative autoregressive LLM to sample highly realistic synthetic tabular data. The method is based on the translation of tabular data into textual data. A first step called “text coding” is performed. It enables you to construct syntactically correct sentences based on the data set’s column names and their variables. This step is crucial in order to obtain the format expected as input to standard generative LLMs.Each row of the database is transformed into a textual representation concatenating the column names with their variables using a concatenation operator.For example, if our database has a “Price” column and the associated variable is “10€”, then the textual representation will be “The price is 10€”. Each row is then represented by expressing each variable as described above, separated by a comma. As the order of the variables in the resulting sentence is irrelevant when dealing with tabular data, a random permutation of the components is then performed to improve the final performance of the model. The GReaT data pipeline for the fine-tuning stage How do you assess the quality of synthetic data? Subsequently, fine-tuning is performed on an LLM pre-trained with the previously processed data. Finally, new synthetic data can be generated from the initial tabular data. To do this, several preconditioning options are available: – If no value is specified, the model generates a sample representative of the distribution of data in the entire database.– A characteristic-variable pair is given as input. From here, the model will complete the sample, imposing one variable and guiding the generation of the others.– As in the previous case, it is also possible to impose several feature-variable pairs and further guide the generation. Once the text sequences have been generated, an inverse transformation is performed to return to the original tabular format.In summary, GReaT harnesses the power of LLM capabilities by using contextual understanding to generate high-quality synthetic tabular data, giving this method a significant advantage over more commonly used techniques such as GAN or VAE. Generate data sets without training data Using prompts and LLM to generate tabular data without an initial database represents an innovation in synthetic data creation. This method is particularly suitable when initial access to data is limited. It enables the rapid production of customized synthetic data sets, offering an alternative to techniques such as GAN, VAE, or GReaT, which depend on a pre-existing data set for training. This is useful, for example, for testing artificial intelligence models without real data. Defining a precise prompt, which specifies the format and characteristics of the tabular data, is crucial. You need to specify the names of the columns and the desired number of rows. The LLM can then generate a synthetic dataset with the specified columns and number of rows. The prompt must first define the context of the dataset to make the most of the LLM’s language skills. It should also include column names and, except for the first few rows, the values of previous rows. In this way, the model can enrich the dataset while maintaining consistency of information. Creating an effective prompt is the main challenge in generating realistic synthetic data. Often, it will be necessary to refine the prompt through
Synthetic data : Towards a new era of artificial intelligence
Synthetic data : Towards a new era of artificial intelligence ALIA SANTé Synthetic data: towards a new era of artificial intelligence Reading time: 4 minutes Over the past decade, major technological advances have dramatically reshaped various sectors thanks to AI. However, data quality and quantity play a crucial role in the development and performance of AI algorithms. In healthcare, data is often limited and highly confidential. This poses a major challenge in terms of access to sufficient quantities of high-quality data. Indeed, AI is currently hampered by data scarcity, high cost and confidentiality. Imagine a world where it would be possible to obtain unlimited amounts of high-quality, inexpensive, anonymous and secure data. This is now possible thanks to synthetic data! What is synthetic data ? Synthetic data are generated by artificial intelligence algorithms trained on real data. They faithfully reproduce the characteristics and relationships present in the original dataset. This innovative data overcomes the challenges of AI, particularly in healthcare where data confidentiality is crucial. On the other hand, less than 1% of the data used for AI is synthetic. But Gartner predicts that by 2030, they will surpass real data in many models. “By 2030, synthetic data will eclipse real data in a wide range of artificial intelligence models”. Gartner has also placed synthetic data on the “Impact Radar for Edge AI”, putting it in the top 3 of the hottest technologies. Gartner In an increasingly data-driven world, let’s explore how synthetic data can push the current limits of AI. The benefits of synthetic data Unlimited quantity : Build unrestricted quantitative data sets, ideal for areas where real data is limited Improved accessibility : Overcome the challenges of accessing real data, which is often costly and regulated. Cost-efficiency : Synthetic data are often more cost-effective, offering an economical alternative for testing simulations or performing statistical analysis. Guaranteed confidentiality : Being fictitious data, synthetic data is completely anonymous, respecting the privacy of individuals and facilitating its sharing. How do you assess the quality of synthetic data? Assessing the quality of synthetic data is based on three key dimensions: fidelity, usefulness and confidentiality. Fidelity : Synthetic data must faithfully reproduce the characteristics and statistical distribution of real data. Usefulness : The usefulness of synthetic data is assessed by comparing the performance of models trained solely with real data with those incorporating synthetic data. Confidentiality : Synthetic data must be fully anonymized. Metrics such as the absence of duplicates and the nearest-neighbor confidentiality score guarantee data security.

Qu’est-ce que le Deep Learning ? EN
What is Deep Learning? ALIA SANTé New terms are constantly appearing in the field of artificial intelligence. Deep Learning is part of the new wave of AI learning. Let’s take a closer look at what it’s all about. Reading time: 2 minutes. A few words about Deep Learning A branch of Machine Learning, Deep Learning is a field of artificial intelligence increasingly used in everyday life: facial recognition, image identification, conversation translation… Although it is based on the same foundations as conventional artificial intelligence learning, it is a more specialized and in-depth field. Indeed, Deep Learning is a field of artificial intelligence that involves programming a machine to learn to perform specific tasks based on data and examples. The main idea is to create algorithms capable of approximating the workings of the human brain, using artificial neural networks. Deep Learning uses artificial neural networks to achieve this. While machine learning is already very powerful, deep learning is made up of a more complex mechanism. As a result, this technology is able to process larger quantities of data. It is therefore highly relevant in fields such as finance, law and, of course, healthcare. The mechanisms of deep learning This involves the use of artificial neural networks, inspired by biological neurons. Tens or even hundreds of functions are linked together to form artificial neurons. These are divided into several interconnected layers. Each layer has its own task, its own objective to achieve. They are asked to interpret the information given by the previous layer of neurons and pass it on to the next. It’s a chain to which each link contributes information. The deeper these neurons are, i.e. the more functions they contain, the more capable the machine is of learning to perform complex tasks. (e.g. identifying people in photos). A special case of Deep Learning : imaging Dans le cas spécifique de l’analyse d’images médicales, les réseaux neuronaux sont convolutifs. La convolution est une opération mathématique. Si elle est si compatible avec les images, c’est parce qu’elle permet d’extraire des caractéristiques. Elle est capable de traduire les pixels de l’image. Un réseau de neurones convolutif est un cas particulier de réseaux de neurones artificiels. Ce réseau se caractérise par ses premières couches convolutives, qui appliquent un filtrage convolutif à l’entrée. Les premières couches détectent les attributs les plus importants, tandis que les dernières couches détectent les attributs les plus précis. C’est pourquoi cette architecture est souvent utilisée dans la reconnaissance d’images médicales ou de vidéos.
La médecine des 5P – EN
5P medicine ALIA SANTé 5P medicine Our digitally-saturated society benefits greatly from progress. That’s why health isn’t standing in the way of our new lifestyle. After years of reflection, 5P medicine has become a project for France. Its aim is to take advantage of the expansion of digital technology to create a more adapted form of medicine. Let’s take a look at what lies behind the idea of “predictive”, “preventive”, “personalized”, “participative” and “proven” medicine. Reading time: 4 minutes Preventive : Already active to a certain extent through the intervention of professionals or lobbies, this practice enables us to implement preventive gestures. However, prevention is still limited when it comes to Musculoskeletal Disorders and Psycho-Social Risks. So, although this idea of prevention is already established, it is not yet very effective. Predictive : Prevention consists in warning people about the risks of a particular practice. Above all, however, we need to be aware of the risks of our actions. Prediction, therefore, detects all the risk factors that will require prevention. By knowing as many parameters as possible about an individual, the chances of prevention increase. Thus, by cross-referencing practices, consumption and habits, it will be possible to reliably distinguish risk factors. It’s a job that calls for rigor and strategy, in order to cross-reference data as effectively as possible. This is exactly what data scientists are good at, and they are actively contributing to this paradigm shift. Mastering the factors of an individual’s daily life ensures the most appropriate approach to risk prevention. In order to prevent a person’s disorders, we need to understand that a single cause cannot be the reason for all ills. Thus, the issue to be taken into account for the future care pathway is not the pathology, but the individual. Participatory : Professional intervention need not result in extreme pain. Indeed, the idea of participatory medicine requires the patient to be active in caring for his or her body. Today’s research proves that the body is capable of and needs movement. Indeed, when pain seems to advise against it, passively acting on the body to spare it is an outdated idea and belongs to earlier medicine. It is therefore necessary to actively participate in the patient’s care, and a change of environment is not enough: the patient must adapt his or her body. But isn’t it against human nature to adapt only one’s environment and not one’s body? The caregiver has knowledge of the body, but the patient has control over his or her own body, and must be aware of its dysfunctions. Medicine must become a transparent exchange, on both sides. Customized : Medicine must be adapted to the individual, not to his or her pathology. We mustn’t forget that the human being is a whole. At present, the problem lies in the diversity of treatment specific to each spécialiste. Nous avons besoin d’un point de vue globalisant. Il ne faut plus se centrer sur la pathologie mais sur le contexte. Proven : Until now, only 4P medicine has attracted interest. Today, a fifth P has been added, with the aim of affirming that all this medicine is evidence-based. Since 4P medicine has a multidisciplinary focus, it seems important to use this last P to emphasize that care practices must be based on science. The 4Ps, which were already gradually coming to the fore, have gradually led to the questioning of contemporary medicinal practices. Indeed, some of them no longer seem valid. Thus, the importance of critical thinking and vigilance is highlighted, in order to guarantee the most appropriate care. This critical spirit must not only be part of medicinal work, but also among patients. Indeed, some of our preventive practices are based solely on myths. Contemporary, visionary medicine We can see that this medicine is already beginning to take its place in medical practice. Little by little, it will become the only credible vision of effective medicine. Digital advances have made this theoretical breakthrough possible. Now, practical work will be largely coordinated with data scientists. Indeed, the use of artificial intelligence seems inevitable for this medicine of the future. Not only is it inevitable, it’s a real boon. Indeed, thanks to medical artificial intelligence, very large databases will enable progress to be made ever closer to the 5p ideal. Thus, 5P medicine, which was composed of just 4 principles, will continue to evolve rapidly. Some practitioners are already talking about a sixth paradigm for the medicine of the future. Somewhere, a question seems to be emerging. Isn’t it precisely the arrival of digital technology, capable of automatically applying an answer to a given question, that has given rise to this idea of a medicine closer to the human being than to pathology.

Génération de données synthétiques : Comment peuvent-elles aider les entreprises à se conformer au RGPD ? EN
Synthetic data generation: how can it help companies comply with GDPR ALIA SANTé Data anonymization is an increasingly important topic in the digital world, particularly when it comes to protecting individuals’ personal data. With the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), data anonymization has become common practice for companies looking to comply with privacy standards. Reading time: 3 minutes What is data anonymization? Data anonymization is the process of modifying data so that it can no longer be associated with a specific person or company. Methods may vary depending on the type of data to be anonymized. However, common methods of data anonymization include: – Replacing names, addresses, dates of birth and other personal information with unique identifiers.– Removal of location information such as IP addresses or geolocation information.– Aggregation of data to prevent disclosure of individual information. Why is it important to anonymize data? Data anonymization is important for several reasons, including: – Complying with privacy standards : With the implementation of the RGPD, companies must protect individuals’ personal data in compliance with privacy standards. – Protect individuals’ privacy : By ensuring that personal information cannot be used to identify them. – Avoid data breaches : By helping to avoid data breaches and ensuring that personal information is not stored in an easily accessible format. How does data anonymization relate to the RGPD? Data anonymization is a key element of the RGPD. Companies that process personal data must anonymize data whenever possible, in order to reduce the risk of data breaches and protect individuals’ privacy. The RGPD also requires companies to provide individuals with clear and transparent information about how their data is used and stored. This includes how data is anonymized and what type of information is stored non-anonymously. Why can synthetic data generation be the solution? Synthetic data is artificial data generated by artificial intelligence that mimics the characteristics of real data, without containing individuals’ personal information. This means that companies can use synthetic data to replace real data, while complying with GDPR privacy standards. How can synthetic data generation help mitigate RGPD ? 1. Protecting individual privacy By using synthetic data, companies can guarantee that no personal information is stored in their database. This is because virtual data does not belong to anyone. This protects individual privacy and reduces the risk of data breaches. 2. Guaranteeing data quality Synthetic data generation enables companies to have data of sufficient quality for analyses or applications, while complying with the restrictions of the RGPD. Synthetic data is generally generated in such a way as to reproduce the characteristics of real data, meaning it can deliver accurate and reliable results. 3. Cost savings Collecting and storing real data can be costly. By using synthetic data, companies can reduce the costs associated with collecting and storing real data. 4. Facilitate inter-company collaboration In some cases, several companies may need to share data for analyses or applications. However, the disclosure of personal data may be restricted by the GDPR. By using synthetic data, companies can share data without disclosing individuals’ personal information. In conclusion, synthetic data generation is an effective method of mitigating the RGPD. Companies can use synthetic data to replace real data, while guaranteeing individual privacy and complying with confidentiality standards. This enables companies to have data of sufficient quality for analyses or applications, while reducing the costs associated with collecting and storing real data. Data is thus available in large quantities, easy to access, while removing the compliance barriers imposed by the RGPD, respecting the principle of “privacy by design“.
Comment les données synthétiques ont contribué à l’amélioration de la détection du cancer du sein ? EN
How have synthetic data helped improve breast cancer detection ? ALIA SANTé Discover how synthetic data can be used to improve breast cancer detection Reading time: 3 minutes Breast cancer Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women in France, the European Union and the United States. Although this disease is the leading cause of cancer death in women in 2018, the number of cases diagnosed each year has been on a downward trend since 2005. If breast cancer is detected at an early stage, the chances of survival at 5 years are 99%. Early detection of breast cancer therefore has a significant impact on reducing the disease’s mortality rate. AI in the service of medicine A number of artificial intelligence tools currently exist to help healthcare professionals speed up diagnosis and facilitate therapeutic decisions. Using a combination of genomic sequencing data and Machine Learning algorithms, it is possible to fight cancer. Machine learning can help in the detection, treatment and prognosis of the disease. But also in the development of personalized treatments. This approach makes it possible to draw on data from multiple patients to identify similarities and correlations between them, and thus gain a better understanding of the disease. However, artificial intelligence is currently hampered by the limited amount of data available. So how can we enable AI to break through this barrier and reach a new stage in its evolution? To answer this question, we propose a use case on the “Breast Cancer Wisconsin (Diagnosis) – UCI Machine Learning Repository” dataset. The aim of this dataset is to predict whether a tumor is malignant or benign. We therefore decided to augment the training database with a classification artificial intelligence model using synthetic data. The study 1,000 digital twins complemented the 569 real patients in this study. These digital twins are synthetic data generated using artificial intelligence algorithms. These algorithms faithfully reproduce the characteristics of the real patients, while preserving their anonymity. This approach has made it possible to extend the size of the training data set. This opens up new perspectives for artificial intelligence models. The comparison We compared the performance of several classification models. The results showed a 5.2% improvement in the performance of models trained with a cohort combining real and virtual patients, compared with models trained only with real patients. The benefits of synthetic data in this context are clear. The performance of artificial intelligence solutions for breast cancer classification is improved by the addition of synthetic data. This enables models to be more accurate and reliable in detecting both malignant and benign tumors. This can have a direct impact on treatment decisions taken by healthcare professionals. By using synthetic data, it is then possible to considerably enlarge the size of the training dataset. This in turn enables models to learn from a more diverse and representative sample. In addition, synthetic data have the advantage of beingof being anonymous, which solves the problems of confidentiality andprotection of sensitive patient data. Researchers andand healthcare professionals can use these data without fear of violatingviolate the privacy of the individuals concerned. Conclusion : Synthetic data contribute to the improvement of breast cancer. The use of synthetic data has brought significant improvements in breast cancer detection thanks to artificial intelligence. The performance of classification models has been enhanced. This means better predictions and a larger database for research. While preserving patient confidentiality, synthetic data opens up new prospects for innovation in the fight against breast cancer. This promising approach paves the way for new advances in healthcare.
EU AI Act: Implications and strategic directions
EU AI Act: Implications and strategic directions ALIA SANTé EU AI ACT Reading time: 5 minutes In 2020, Gartner estimated that only 13% of organizations were at the high end of its AI maturity model. Meanwhile, the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) noted in its latest report that “most companies worldwide are making steady progress” in AI. These observations demonstrate the growing importance of artificial intelligence in the global economic and technological landscape, underlining the need for a solid regulatory framework. The European Union has responded to this need with the introduction of the Artificial Intelligence Regulation, or AI Act, which aims to frame the development and use of AI within member states, while protecting the rights of European citizens. What is the AI Act? The EU Artificial Intelligence Regulation (AI Act) is a legislative initiative designed to regulate the development and use of AI in member states. The aim is to create a safe, reliable and fair environment for the integration of AI in various sectors, while protecting European citizens from the risks associated with this technology. Why is the AI Act crucial in Europe? Europe stands out for its focus on human rights and the protection of personal data. The AI Act is crucial because it extends these principles to the field of artificial intelligence, seeking to prevent potential abuses and ensure that AI technologies are used ethically and responsibly. Risk-based classification of AI systems AI systems are classified into four risk levels: minimal, limited, high and unacceptable. Each level requires compliance measures proportionate to the potential impact on citizens and businesses. Requirements and compliance for high-risk AI systems Systems deemed to be high-risk, such as those used in healthcare or critical infrastructures, must meet strict criteria for transparency, security and human supervision. The AI Act provides for national authorities to monitor the application of the rules, capable of imposing sanctions in the event of non-compliance. These measures ensure that AI is used safely and in line with European values. Challenges and implications for companies The adoption of the AI Act poses significant challenges for businesses, particularly in terms of compliance and technological adaptation. While large companies may have the resources to adapt quickly, startups could find these regulations an obstacle to innovation and growth. However, it could also represent an opportunity to differentiate themselves through ethical and transparent AI practices. Compliance strategies for AI players Companies will need to develop compliance strategies, possibly by integrating dedicated AI risk management and data governance teams, to effectively comply with the AI Act. Social and ethical impact of the AI Act The impact of the AI Act goes far beyond technical and commercial implications; it also poses profound social and ethical questions, aimed at protecting the fundamental rights of individuals. At the heart of the AI Act is the promotion of the ethical use of AI. This includes safeguards against discrimination, respect for privacy, and ensuring that automated decisions are fair, transparent and amenable to human redress where necessary. By imposing high standards for AI systems, the AI Act seeks to protect European citizens from potential abuses such as unregulated mass surveillance or algorithmic biases that could adversely affect their lives. AI Act and technological innovation Although the regulatory framework may initially seem restrictive, it is designed to stimulate responsible and secure innovation in AI. One of the key challenges of the AI Act is to strike a balance between facilitating technological innovation and applying the necessary controls to prevent the risks associated with AI. This challenge is crucial to maintaining the EU’s competitiveness in the global digital economy, while ensuring that innovation respects European values. The AI Act’s regulatory framework could act as a catalyst for innovation, encouraging companies to develop AI technologies that are not only advanced but also comply with high ethical standards. This could open up new markets and opportunities for AI products and services that are both safe and ethically responsible. Conclusion on the EU AI Act The EU’s AI Act is an ambitious legislative initiative designed to frame the use of artificial intelligence through an approach that balances regulatory caution with the encouragement of innovation. Although challenges remain, particularly in terms of implementation and the impact on small businesses, the potential benefits in terms of protecting individual rights and promoting ethical AI are considerable. The AI Act Regulation is an important legislative framework to ensure that Europe remains at the forefront of technological innovation while protecting its citizens from the potential risks of AI. It is an initiative that could well shape the future of AI globally. For European businesses, decision-makers and citizens alike, it is essential to keep abreast of developments in the AI Act, take part in the discussions and actively prepare the adaptations needed to maximize the benefits of AI while minimizing its risks.
