AI-generated dataset with sampling bias (IMAGE) Rice University Caption Progressive transformation of a dataset consisting of numerals 1 through 9 across 20 model iterations of a fully synthetic loop with sampling bias (top panel), and corresponding visual representation of data mode dynamics for real (red) and synthetic (green) data (bottom panel). With sampling bias, synthetic data modes still separate from real data modes, but, rather than merging, they collapse around individual, high-quality images. This translates into a prolonged preservation of higher quality data across iterations: All but a couple of the numerals are still legible by generation 20 (rightmost column, top panel). While sampling bias preserves data quality longer, this comes at the expense of data diversity.
