For tabular in-context learning models, recourse is well-defined, its cost is bounded and converges to classical linear recourse as context grows; ASR-ICL finds sparse recourse with fewer queries.
PS-PFN extends posterior sampling to the max k-armed bandit setup using PFNs for in-context posterior estimation of maximal pipeline performance, outperforming other bandit and AutoML strategies on benchmarks.
TabICL scales in-context learning to large tabular data via column-then-row attention for row embeddings followed by a transformer, matching TabPFNv2 speed and performance while outperforming it and CatBoost on datasets over 10K samples.
The synthetic prior for tabular foundation models covers only a narrow part of real table distributions, but this mismatch does not degrade model generalization.
TabSwift introduces an efficient row-wise attention tabular foundation model competitive with TabPFN v2 and TabICL via gated attention stabilization and register tokens, plus adaptive layer-wise early-exit for inference.
