• Abstract summary: We construct a hypergraph to model the cross-row and cross-column patterns of data instances. We then perform message propagation to enhance the target data instance representation. Experiments on two important data prediction tasks validate the superiority of the proposed PET model.

• Abstract: Prediction over tabular data is an essential and fundamental problem in many important downstream tasks. However, existing methods either take a data instance of the table independently as input or do not fully utilize the multi-rows features and labels to directly change and enhance the target data representations. In this paper, we propose to 1) construct a hypergraph from relevant data instance retrieval to model the cross-row and cross-column patterns of those instances, and 2) perform message Propagation to Enhance the target data instance representation for Tabular prediction tasks. Specifically, our specially-designed message propagation step benefits from 1) fusion of label and features during propagation, and 2) locality-aware high-order feature interactions. Experiments on two important tabular data prediction tasks validate the superiority of the proposed PET model against other baselines. Additionally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the model components and the feature enhancement ability of PET via various ablation studies and visualizations. The code is included in https://github.com/KounianhuaDu/PET.

  We introduce TabDiff, a joint diffusion framework that models all multi-modal distributions of tabular data in one model. Our key innovation is the development of a joint continuous-time diffusion process for numerical and categorical data. TabDiff achieves superior average performance over existing competitive baselines, with up to $22.5%$ improvement over the state-of-the-art model on pair-wise column correlation estimations.

  Large language models (LLMs) have been recently leveraged as training data generators for various natural language processing (NLP) tasks. We investigate training data generation with diversely attributed prompts, which have the potential to yield diverse and attributed generated data. We show that attributed prompts outperform simple class-conditional prompts in terms of the resulting model's performance.

  The proposed imputation process uses Transformer network and graph structure learning to iteratively refine the contextual relationships among features and similarities among observations. It uses a meta-learning framework to select features that are influential to the downstream prediction task of interest. We conduct experiments on real-world large data sets, and show that the proposed imputation process consistently improves imputation and label prediction performance.
