❖ PrimaryToPrimaryKeySubset

❖ SDV Enterprise Bundle. This feature is available as part of the CAG Bundle, an optional add-on to SDV Enterprise. For more information, please visit the CAG Bundle page.

Use the PrimaryToPrimaryKeySubset constraint when you have a 1-to-1 connection between the primary keys of two or more tables but only certain values are allowed to have connections.

In this example, only minors are supposed to have parental info

Constraint API

This functionality is in Beta. At this time, select SDV Enterprise users have been invited to use this feature.

Create a PrimaryToPrimaryKeySubset constraint.

Parameters:

• (required) main_table_name: A string with the name of the main table that contains all the possible rows. Only some of these rows are allowed to be connected to other tables.

• (required) conditional_column_name: A string with the name of a column in the main table. The values of this column controls whether connections are allowed with other tables.

• (required) relationships: A dictionary that maps the name of each connected table with the conditional value that is allowed for the connection.

from sdv.cag import PrimaryToPrimaryKeySubset

my_constraint = PrimaryToPrimaryKeySubset(
    main_table_name='Users',
    conditional_column_name='Is Minor?',
    relationships={
        'Parental Info': [True]
    })

Make sure that all the table and columns in you provide are in your Metadata, and have a primary key associated with them.

Usage

Apply the constraint to any SDV synthesizer. Then fit and sample as usual.

synthesizer = HSASynthesizer(metadata)
synthesizer.add_cag([my_constraint])

synthesizer.fit(data)
synthetic_data = synthesizer.sample()
