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.

The paper introduces a four-step pipeline that mines decision rules in the latent space of an FT-Transformer and then translates those rules back into measurable clinical features. By treating embedding dimensions that separate patient groups as latent biomarkers, small decision trees are used to extract rules, which are then mapped to raw features using gradient-input saliency and CLS attention attribution. Across six public clinical datasets, the translated rules generally outperformed raw-feature rules, achieving significant AUROC gains, though some high-performing latent rules could not be fully captured by simple raw-feature conditions.
