The ctgan package provides an R interface to CTGAN, a GAN-based data synthesizer. The package enables one to create synthetic samples of confidential or proprietary datasets for sharing. For more details and use cases, see the papers in the References section.
You can install the development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("kasaai/ctgan")A quick example:
library(ctgan)
# Install dependencies before first usage
# install_ctgan()
synthesizer <- ctgan()
synthesizer %>%
