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:2606. 02384v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Progress in tabular machine learning has largely focused on increasingly sophisticated model architectures.
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:2601. 03808v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have achieved notable performance in code synthesis; however, data-aware augmentation remains a limiting factor, handled via heuristic design or brute-force approaches.
SymboLLM-FE combines symbolic regression and large language models to automate feature engineering for tabular data. It first extracts mathematically expressive formulas that correlate strongly with the target, then refines them with LLMs to improve interpretability. Experiments on six real‑world datasets and four Kaggle competitions show that SymboLLM‑FE outperforms existing AutoFE methods while reducing the number of costly LLM calls.

arXiv:2606. 01286v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid progress of frontier large language models has led to widespread benchmark saturation, limiting the ability of existing datasets to differentiate model capabilities or provide useful training signal.
arXiv:2607. 25675v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-space optimization adapts large language models (LLMs) by editing external natural-language artifacts rather than model weights, so the optimized artifacts remain inspectable and the model can be treated as a black box.
The paper presents an iterative framework that uses large language models (LLMs) to automatically extract interpretable, schema‑bound categorical features from unstructured text for use in tabular prediction models. A generator LLM proposes semantic definitions, an extractor LLM materializes the features, and a downstream tabular model evaluates their predictive performance, with error‑driven natural‑language feedback guiding the search. Across three public datasets, the error‑driven loop speeds up feature discovery up to three times and the resulting features outperform any subset when combined with TF‑IDF and dense embeddings, while also providing instance‑level interpretability through SHAP importance rankings and a semantic audit trail.
arXiv:2601. 22588v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are widely used as reference-free evaluators via prompting, but this "LLM-as-a-Judge" paradigm is costly, opaque, and sensitive to prompt design.
