A Systematic Framework for Tabular Data Disentanglement

  • 将表格数据解耦流程拆分为四模块:数据提取、建模、分析与潜在表示外推。
  • 在合成数据生成任务中验证框架有效性,突破现有方法的可扩展性与泛化瓶颈。
  • 适合研究数据解耦、生成模型及工业数据分析的学者与工程师参考。

表格数据广泛应用于工业控制系统、金融和供应链等领域,其属性间常存在复杂关联。数据解耦旨在将此类数据转化为低依赖性的潜在变量,以提升处理效率与效果。尽管图像、文本或音频数据的解耦研究已较成熟,但表格数据因属性交互更复杂,直接迁移其他领域方法效果不佳。现有方法如因子分析、CT-GAN 和 VAE 存在可扩展性差、模式崩溃和泛化能力弱等问题。本文提出一个系统性框架,将表格数据解耦过程模块化为四个核心环节:数据提取、数据建模、模型分析与潜在表示外推。该框架有助于深入理解现有方法并推动未来高效、可扩展解耦技术的发展。最后通过合成表格数据生成的案例研究,验证了框架在数据合成等下游任务中的应用潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Tabular data, widely used in various applications such as industrial control systems, finance, and supply chain, often contains complex interrelationships among its attributes. Data disentanglement seeks to transform such data into latent variables with reduced interdependencies, facilitating more effective and efficient processing. Despite the extensive studies on data disentanglement over image, text, or audio data, tabular data disentanglement may require further investigation due to the more intricate attribute interactions typically found in tabular data. Moreover, due to the highly complex interrelationships, direct translation from other data domains results in suboptimal data disentanglement. Existing tabular data disentanglement methods, such as factor analysis, CT-GAN, and VAE face limitations including scalability issues, mode collapse, and poor extrapolation. In this paper, we propose the use of a framework to provide a systematic view on tabular data disentanglement that modularizes the process into four core components: data extraction, data modeling, model analysis, and latent representation extrapolation. We believe this work provides a deeper understanding of tabular data disentanglement and existing methods, and lays the foundation for potential future research in developing robust, efficient, and scalable data disentanglement techniques. Finally, we demonstrate the framework's applicability through a case study on synthetic tabular data generation, showcasing its potential in the particular downstream task of data synthesis.
