This R&D experiment is exploring the potential of advanced machine learning approaches to create synthetic data that may enable wider use in AI applications of sensitive data.
Name in original language
Synthetic Data Experiment
Initiative overview
This project on unlocking the power of sensitive data for use in AI is running from December 2019 to March 2020 and is budgeted at AED 1 million.The initiative has the following objectives:To test (through attack scenarios) the degree to which synthetic data can retain the privacy and other sensitive aspects of classified data, whilst also retaining the underlying relationships between variables.To test the technical performance of AI models trained on synthetic data alongside models using real data, and to establish the usefulness of synthetic data in a range of use cases (focused on highly sophisticated analytics and AI product development).To explore the potential of creating a synthetic city data store to boost the supply of high quality, high value data for AI.
