Knowledge distillation (KD) enables a compact student model to learn from a powerful teacher and has become an effective paradigm for model compression. The emergence of diverse model architectures has extended KD from homogeneous to heterogeneous settings.

The paper presents a method for distilling tabular foundation models (TFMs) into lightweight, dataset‑specific students. By using the full labeled training set as teacher context and training students on both observed and synthetic queries, the authors achieve significant performance gains over traditional supervised models on TabArena and TALENT benchmarks. The distilled students also provide substantial inference speedups, reducing the cost of repeated inference.
