Record completeness
Claims
TabPFN achieved one the highest performance (AUC=0.892), outperforming LightGBM (AUC=0.860) and demonstrating advantages in low data settings. At N=50 training samples, TabPFN maintained strong AUC while the traditional machine learning models struggles at small training samples.
That differences in reported AUC arise from model architecture rather than unstated hyperparameter tuning, feature preprocessing choices, or train-test leakage in the TADPOLE splits.
TabPFN reaches AUC 0.892 for 3-year MCI-to-AD conversion on TADPOLE data and holds performance at N=50 training samples where XGBoost, Random Forest, LightGBM, and logistic regression degrade.
