arXiv:2605. 20254v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown promising results on NLP tasks, however, their performance on tabular data still needs research attention, because Table Question-Answering (TQA) requires precise cell retrieval and multi-step structured reasoning.

TeleTables is a benchmark that evaluates large language models on interpreting telecom tables from 3GPP specifications. It contains 2,220 tables in four formats and 500 human‑verified multiple‑choice questions that range from simple retrieval to multi‑step reasoning. Tests on 20 open‑weight LLMs show that closed‑book performance is limited by domain knowledge, while providing the table as context yields high accuracy that still drops with deeper reasoning, evidence scope, and structural complexity.

The paper introduces FlockMTL, an extension for database management systems that deeply integrates large language models and retrieval‑augmented generation into DuckDB. It provides model‑driven scalar and aggregate functions, cost‑based optimizations like batching and caching, and new SQL DDL abstractions (PROMPT and MODEL) to treat LLMs as first‑class schema objects. These features aim to simplify the development of knowledge‑intensive analytical applications by reducing the effort required to orchestrate heterogeneous data systems and manage LLM context.
