MOSTLY AI lets you adjust the generation mood for each column in your data. This allows you to control the degree to which the synthetic version of the column will adhere to the detected distributions and correlations in the original data.

We recommend using this feature if you’re testing with healthcare data, which requires synthetic data with strong business rule adherence. But you can also use it to simulate human error—inputs that you might never see in the data but could happen.

The following generation mood settings are available:

Conservative

Generates synthetic data strictly within the business rules captured in the data.

Representative

Generates synthetic data that adheres less strictly to the business rules captured in the data.

Creative

Generates synthetic data skewed towards the outliers of the detected distributions. This option can be helpful when generating test data.
