Discovering Relationships in Data Lakes Using Large Language Models: An Industrial Case

The paper introduces ColRel, a two-stage approach that uses large language models to discover relationships between columns in data lakes. It first creates column embeddings from available metadata and data at ingestion, then refines these embeddings with business dictionaries to generate concise natural-language descriptions. Experiments on public benchmarks and an industrial ERP dataset demonstrate ColRel’s effectiveness, especially in scenarios with weak signals and semantically related columns.

SciNLP: A Domain-Specific Benchmark for Full-Text Scientific Entity and Relation Extraction in NLP

SciNLP is a new benchmark dataset for full‑text entity and relation extraction in the NLP domain, comprising 60 manually annotated papers with 6,429 entities and 1,649 relations. It is the first dataset to provide full‑text annotations of entities and their relationships specifically for NLP literature. Experiments show that models trained on SciNLP outperform baselines on certain tasks, and the dataset enabled the automatic construction of a fine‑grained knowledge graph with an average node degree of 3.3.

ERUnderstand: Evaluating Vision-Language Models on Structured ER Diagrams

arXiv:2607. 24707v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Entity-Relationship Diagrams (ERDs) are central to conceptual database design, yet they are typically available only as rendered images rather than machine-readable schemas, limiting AI-assisted database engineering.

Finding the Right Tables and Columns: A Benchmark and Corpus-Adaptive Embeddings for SQL Schema Retrieval

Retrieval in the SQL setting has largely been studied as the task of finding, within a large collection of SQL statements, the statement that answers a natural-language question. At scale, however, a more fundamental retrieval problem precedes generation: schema retrieval, identifying the tables and columns a question requires in a database that may contain thousands of them, far more than fit in a model's context.

DI-Bench: Systematically Generating In-Domain Data Intelligence Benchmarks for Enterprise Agents

DI-Bench is a pipeline that automatically creates realistic data intelligence benchmarks for enterprise agents by linking data tables, dimensions, metrics, and documents into an artifact graph. It generates questions that combine structured data queries with knowledge retrieval, validates answers via query execution and LLM-generated questions, and has produced a 731-task benchmark covering knowledge retrieval, analytical computation, and rule‑grounded reasoning. Evaluation of four models on this benchmark shows that only 32% accuracy is achieved on computational tasks that involve business rules modifying the computation.
