• Abstract: Efficient processing of tabular data is important in various industries, especially when working with datasets containing a large number of columns. Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated their ability on several tasks through carefully crafted prompts. However, creating effective prompts for tabular datasets is challenging due to the structured nature of the data and the need to manage numerous columns. This paper presents an innovative auto-prompt generation system suitable for multiple LLMs, with minimal training. It proposes two novel methods; 1) A Reinforcement Learning-based algorithm for identifying and sequencing task-relevant columns 2) Cell-level similarity-based approach for enhancing few-shot example selection. Our approach has been extensively tested across 66 datasets, demonstrating improved performance in three downstream tasks: data imputation, error detection, and entity matching using two distinct LLMs; Google flan-t5-xxl and Mixtral 8x7B.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) often do not perform well on queries that require the aggregation of information across texts. TACT contains challenging instructions that demand stitching information scattered across one or more texts. We construct this dataset by leveraging an existing dataset of texts and their associated tables. We demonstrate that all contemporary LLMs perform poorly on this dataset, achieving an accuracy below 38%.

  We propose a framework for few-shot semi-supervised learning, coined Self-generated Tasks from UNlabeled Tables (STUNT) Our key idea is to self-generate diverse few-shot tasks by treating randomly chosen columns as a target label. We then employ a meta-learning scheme to learn generalizable knowledge with the constructed tasks.
