Bases: TabularBaseGenerator

Continuous Diffusion for mixed-type Tabular Data (CDTD).

CDTD uses continuous diffusion for mixed-type tabular data. It provides several improvements to homogenize data types in the modelling process.

Uses the simple wrapper implementation from the original paper’s authors (https://github.com/muellermarkus/cdtd_simple)

Paper: “Continuous Diffusion for Mixed-Type Tabular Data” by Mueller et al. (2023).

Example

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from synthyverse.generators import CDTDGenerator
>>>
>>> # Load data
>>> X = pd.read_csv("data.csv")
>>> discrete_features = ["category_col"]
>>>
>>> # Create generator
>>> generator = CDTDGenerator(
...     timewarp_type="bytype",
...     num_steps_train=30000,
...     random_state=42
... )
>>>
>>> # Fit and generate
>>> generator.fit(X, discrete_features)
>>> X_syn = generator.generate(1000)
