This research explores into the utilization of synthetic data within image classification tasks and evaluates its efficiency in comparison to the utilization of real data. To facilitate this investigation, we employ the CIFAKE dataset, comprising the well-established CIFAR10 dataset and an equivalent number of images synthetically generated using the Latent Diffusion Model (LDM). The increasing demand for diverse and abundant labeled datasets has prompted the emergence of synthetic data as a potential solution to address data scarcity. Within this study, we scrutinize the performance of image classification models trained on both real and synthetic datasets. To ensure a comprehensive evaluation, we alternately apply test data across different models. Our analysis encompasses diverse factors, including classification accuracy, generalization capabilities, and robustness in various scenarios. The findings provide valuable insights into the efficacy of synthetic data as a viable alternative or complement to real data in the realm of image classification.

Artificial intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning are increasingly making significant contributions to the field of medicine. Individual patient conditions, disease localization, and various influencing factors underscore the complexity of disease diagnosis and treatment planning. Introducing new technologies can revolutionize medical diagnostics, facilitating swift and accurate assessments. Among the noninvasive diagnostic methods, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) stands out, particularly in tumor diagnosis. UNet, renowned for its effectiveness in medical image analysis, serves as a robust model for semantic segmentation, as does DeepLabV3+. However, these models are inherently complex, and their inference process can be time-consuming. By leveraging the OpenVINO toolkit, the inference process is significantly reduced. In this study, nearly a 2-fold acceleration is achieved in inference time with the DeepLabV3+ model and a roughly 1.2-fold improvement with the UNet model on CPU. Moreover, when employing GPU with FP16 precision, the acceleration reached almost 2.5fold for UNet and nearly 3-fold for DeepLabV3+, showcasing the substantial performance enhancements attainable through optimized hardware utilization.
