arXiv:2606. 09323v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tabular encoders are usually evaluated inside task-specific end-to-end pipelines, so models from different training paradigms are difficult to compare directly even when they operate on similar tabular signals.

arXiv:2606. 02106v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a single classification pipeline that combines an Equiangular Tight Frame (ETF) preprocessing stage with a tabular foundation model for in-context inference, applied identically across modalities once data is mapped to fixed vector representations.

arXiv:2606. 07345v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tabular foundation models, exemplified by TabPFN, perform prediction via in-context learning, inferring test labels directly from labeled training examples.

arXiv:2606. 04485v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tabular foundation models (TFMs) increasingly rival tree ensembles, but their performance is often compute-inefficient: with standard affine scalar tokenization, each feature injects value variation through an essentially one-dimensional channel, and feature IDs/positional signals cannot increase within-feature value degrees of freedom, yielding weak early-layer value sensitivity and redundant hidden states.

arXiv:2608. 16429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Foundational models for tabular data have made significant progress in recent years, with TabICLv2 reporting state-of-the-art performance on several tabular classification tasks.
