ARTICLE SUMMARY:
With software that simulates medical data from real-world samples, Replica Analytics has a game-changing opportunity to change how clinical research is done.
The “synthetic data” industry has come about to help data scientists solve issues of privacy, security and scalability around data. In medical applications, these businesses use software to create large, representative datasets from a given sample of patient data, thereby solving many problems particular to medical data—its complexity, incompleteness, scarcity (relative to other industrial applications), and regulated privacy issues.
