This work focuses on building a framework for the synthesis of data. In the framework, the synthesis process starts with generating a random dependency graph, specifically a directed acyclic graph. In this graph, every node, except the source nodes, has parent nodes. The nodes represent variables. In the next step, we populate each node with predefined random dependencies. A dependency is a model that defines the value of a variable based on its parent variables. From this structure, datasets can be sampled. Users have control over the properties of the causal graph through various parameters and can choose from multiple types of dependencies, representing different complexity levels.
