This work investigates the use of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for generating high-quality synthetic datasets with preserved statistical features of actual data. We implement a PyTorch version and train a GAN on tabular data, and we analyze the quality of generated synthetic samples using several statistical and visualization evaluation methods. The results show that well-trained GANs are capable of effectively modeling both the marginal distributions of a single feature and the intricate relationships amongst variables. Our work here describes an extensive evaluation protocol consisting of distribution comparisons, correlation analysis, dimensionality reduction visualizations, and statistical measures that collectively gauge the fidelity of the synthesized data. Our results indicate that GANs offer a viable method for synthetic data generation in scenarios where data privacy, augmentation, or simulation is necessary.
