Summary: | The advancement of deep learning methods across various applications has forced the creation of enormous training datasets. However, obtaining suitable real-world datasets is often challenging for various reasons. Consequently, numerous studies have emerged focusing on the generation and utilization of synthetic data in the training process. Hence, there is no universal formula for preparing synthetic data and leveraging it in network training to maximize the effectiveness of various detection methods. This work provides a comprehensive overview of several synthetic data generation techniques, followed by a thorough investigation into the impact of training methods and the selection of synthetic data quantities. The outcomes of this research enable the formulation of conclusions regarding the recipe for developing synthetic data with high efficacy in enhancing detection methods. The main conclusion for the synthetic data generation methods is to ensure maximum diversity at a high level of photorealism, which allows improving the classification quality by more than 5% to even 19% for different detection metrics. |
