SheetBrain: A Neuro-Symbolic Agent for Accurate Reasoning over Complex and Large Spreadsheets

  • 结合神经网络与符号逻辑,分三步分析表格数据。
  • 在新基准上准确率超现有方法,大表处理能力更强。
  • 适合需要高精度表格分析的科研与业务场景。

理解与推理复杂电子表格仍是大型语言模型的重大挑战,常因无法准确捕捉表格结构或保证推理正确性而失败。本文提出SheetBrain,一种神经符号双工作流智能体框架,用于精确处理表格数据,支持问答与操作任务。该框架包含三个核心模块:理解模块生成表格概览(含表摘要与基于查询的问题洞察)以引导推理;执行模块集成预加载表格处理库的Python沙箱与Excel辅助工具包,实现多轮有效推理;验证模块检查推理与答案正确性,必要时触发重执行。我们在多个公开表格问答与操作基准上评估了SheetBrain,同时引入新基准SheetBench,专攻大规模、多表且结构复杂的场景。实验结果表明,SheetBrain在现有基准及更复杂场景中均显著提升准确率。代码已开源:https://github.com/microsoft/SheetBrain。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Understanding and reasoning over complex spreadsheets remain fundamental challenges for large language models (LLMs), which often struggle with accurately capturing the complex structure of tables and ensuring reasoning correctness. In this work, we propose SheetBrain, a neuro-symbolic dual workflow agent framework designed for accurate reasoning over tabular data, supporting both spreadsheet question answering and manipulation tasks. SheetBrain comprises three core modules: an understanding module, which produces a comprehensive overview of the spreadsheet - including sheet summary and query-based problem insight to guide reasoning; an execution module, which integrates a Python sandbox with preloaded table-processing libraries and an Excel helper toolkit for effective multi-turn reasoning; and a validation module, which verifies the correctness of reasoning and answers, triggering re-execution when necessary. We evaluate SheetBrain on multiple public tabular QA and manipulation benchmarks, and introduce SheetBench, a new benchmark targeting large, multi-table, and structurally complex spreadsheets. Experimental results show that SheetBrain significantly improves accuracy on both existing benchmarks and the more challenging scenarios presented in SheetBench. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/microsoft/SheetBrain.
