Navigating the World of Data Augmentation

Data augmentation is a powerful set of techniques used to artificially increase the size and diversity of training datasets by creating modified copies of existing data or generating new synthetic data from existing data. Its primary purpose is to improve the performance and robustness of machine learning models, particularly when the available original data is limited or imbalanced. This process helps models generalize better to new, unseen data, reducing the likelihood of a common issue known as overfitting.
