Abstract

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of synthetic data generation in specialized, data-scarce domains, revealing limitations in performance compared to non-generative methods.

Reality Card

Core Claim

No generative approach consistently outperforms a strong non-generative baseline in trauma classification tasks.

Method / Result

Across five trauma classification tasks, generative methods did not yield performance improvements over non-generative baselines.

Limitations

Recurring failure modes include memorization or collapse, distributional drift, and generation of visually plausible but simplified instances.
