SynFinTabGen: Synthetic Financial Table Generator

A package for generating synthetic financial tables.

Quick Start

To generate a dataset of synthetic financial tables, create a generator and pass how many tables you would like.

from synfintabgen import DatasetGenerator

generator = DatasetGenerator()

generator(10)

The output directory defaults to dataset in the current working directory.

Configuration

You can configure the generator using the DatasetGeneratorConfig class.

from synfintabgen import DatasetGeneratorConfig

config = DatasetGeneratorConfig(
    dataset_path="my-datasets-dir",
    dataset_name="my-dataset-name",
    document_width=745,
    document_height=1503
)

generator = DatasetGenerator(config)
