While this strategy has shown promise in natural image benchmarks such as ImageNet, its effectiveness in sparse, high-variance real-world domains remains unclear. In this work, we focus on domains where images differ substantially from common image datasets and additional data are expensive to obtain. Against non-generative data augmentation baselines, we evaluate the downstream classifier performance improvements yielded by two schools of generative sparse data extension: distribution modeling and sample perturbation. Across five trauma classification tasks using subject-wise train--validation splits, no generative approach consistently outperforms a strong non-generative baseline. Feature-space analysis reveals recurring failure modes: memorization or collapse, distributional drift, and generation of visually plausible but simplified canonical instances that are easier to classify than real data.
