Introduction
--------
Though it is widely recognized that data sharing enables faster scientific progress, the sensible need to protect participant privacy hampers this practice in medicine. We train deep neural networks that generate synthetic subjects closely resembling study participants. Using the SPRINT trial as an example, we show that machine-learning models built from simulated participants generalize to the original dataset. We incorporate differential privacy, which offers strong guarantees on the likelihood that a subject could be identified as a member of the trial. Investigators who have compiled a dataset can use our method to provide a freely accessible public version that enables other scientists to perform discovery-oriented analyses. Generated data can be released alongside analytical code to enable fully reproducible workflows, even when privacy is a concern. By addressing data sharing challenges, deep neural networks can facilitate the rigorous and reproducible investigation of clinical datasets.

First run Preprocess.ipynb on the SPRINT clinical trial data (https://challenge.nejm.org/pages/home)

The results in the paper use:

`python dp_gan.py --noise 1 --clip_value 0.0001 --epochs 500 --lr 2e-05 --batch_size 1 --prefix 1_0.0001_2e-05_ `

Due to GPU threading, the current lack of an effective way to set a random seed for tensorflow, and the fact that we are optimizing two neural networks (unlikely to find global minima) it may require running multiple times to hit a good local minimum.
