A Filtered Mixture-of-Generators for Fully Synthetic Survival Training

arXiv:2607.00127v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Survival analysis models time-to-event data, but in clinical settings training data are costly and scarce: events accrue over years of follow-up, cohorts are small, and privacy regulations restrict sharing across institutions. Tabular generative models promise augmentation and privacy-preserving cohort sharing, yet are themselves data-hungry -- on the small cohorts typical of survival analysis, a single generator rarely characterizes the population well enough for downstream models trained on its output to match real-data performance.
