arXiv:2607. 16255v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A crucial step in machine learning pipelines is to present each entity with features or attributes that are representative of the characteristics of the processed entities.
arXiv:2607. 23286v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatic feature engineering (AutoFE) for tabular learning can be naturally formulated as a program synthesis problem, where the objective is to discover predictive feature transformations from an exponentially large search space.
arXiv:2606. 02384v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Progress in tabular machine learning has largely focused on increasingly sophisticated model architectures.
arXiv:2607. 01548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly used as open-ended search operators in evolutionary optimization.
Large language models are increasingly used as open-ended search operators in evolutionary optimization. We introduce Evolutionary Feature Engineering (EFE), a framework for using LLM-based evolution to discover preprocessing transformations for structured data.
arXiv:2607. 27389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning-to-optimize (L2O) methods accelerate repeated optimization by training models to predict solutions, warm starts, branching decisions, or other forms of solver guidance.
arXiv:2607. 11207v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Table-based reasoning with large language models (LLMs), which requires reasoning based on natural language questions and structured tabular data, has gained widespread attention.
arXiv:2602. 02025v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: ML models critically depend on feature quality, yet in real-world settings, useful features are often distributed across multiple relational tables rather than a single dataset.
arXiv:2606. 14361v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning (ML) pipelines require extensive data preparation, feature engineering, and integration across heterogeneous sources, making them tedious and error-prone to develop.
arXiv:2603. 02221v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In clinical tabular prediction, classical machine learning models with feature engineering often outperform neural methods.
arXiv:2606. 09004v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feature engineering remains essential for tabular data analysis, and Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as a promising paradigm for automating this process, giving rise to LLM-powered AuTomated Tabular feature Engineering (LATTE).
arXiv:2603. 10823v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep generative models can help with data scarcity and privacy by producing synthetic training data, but they struggle in low-data, imbalanced tabular settings to fully learn the complex data distribution.
arXiv:2608. 14209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evolutionary feature construction has shown strong promise in symbolic regression by automatically discovering informative transformations of input features that enhance a simple base learner.
