syntheticdata: Synthetic Clinical Data Generation and Privacy-Preserving Validation

Generates synthetic clinical datasets that preserve statistical properties while reducing re-identification risk. Implements Gaussian copula simulation, bootstrap with noise injection, and Laplace noise perturbation, with built-in utility and privacy validation metrics. Useful for privacy-aware data sharing in multi-site clinical research. Validates synthetic data quality via distributional similarity (Kolmogorov-Smirnov), discriminative accuracy (real-vs-synthetic classifier), and nearest-neighbor privacy ratio. Methods described in Jordon et al. (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2205.03257> and Snoke et al. (2018) <doi:10.1111/rssa.12358>.
