The scarcity of Smart Home data is still a pretty big problem, and in a world where the size of a dataset can often make the difference between a poor performance and a good performance for problems related to machine learning projects, this needs to be resolved. But whereas the problem of retrieving real data can't really be resolved, as most of the time the process of installing sensors and retrieving data can be found to be really expensive and time-consuming, we need to find a faster and easier solution, which is where synthetic data comes in. Here we propose BinarySDG (Binary Synthetic Data Generator) as a flexible and easy way to generate synthetic data for binary sensors.
