Area of Science:

  • Artificial intelligence in healthcare
  • Machine learning for synthetic data generation
  • Computational biology and medicine

Background:

  • Artificial patient technology offers transformative potential in healthcare for accelerating diagnosis and treatment.
  • Deep learning, specifically variational autoencoders (VAE), is a key method for generating artificial health data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of creating artificial patients with reliable clinical attributes using a geometry-based VAE.
  • To apply VAEs to high-dimension, low-sample-size tabular data for the first time.

Main Methods:

  • Extracted clinical tabular data from 521 real patients for anesthesia preparation.
  • Implemented a three-stage approach: model training/data generation, consistency/confidentiality assessment, and plausibility validation.
  • Generated up to 10,000 artificial patients.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated VAE feasibility on tabular data, generating large cohorts with over 94% fidelity.
  • Ensured patient confidentiality, with artificial patients unmatchable to real patients (similarity scores >99%).

Conclusions:

  • Proof-of-concept study successfully augmented real tabular data to generate artificial patients.
  • Results support the potential for in silico trials on large artificial patient cohorts, overcoming in vivo trial limitations.
  • Further research is needed to incorporate longitudinal data for patient trajectory mapping.
