开源三个工具,统一关系学习评估标准,加速可复现研究。

Advancing Open and Reproducible Relational Learning: RelArena-$α$, TabPFN-Rel and RPI

  • 构建RelArena-α框架,标准化数据加载与评测流程
  • TabPFN-Rel在RelBench v1上排名第一,性能优于RDBLearn
  • RPI接口支持任意模型快速部署到新数据库

本版本首次发布优先实验室在关系学习领域的三项开源成果,展现对开放科学的持续承诺。我们推出RelArena-α,一个统一框架,用于在RelBench v1上运行和比较基线方法,通过标准化数据加载、评估协议、调优机制及支持自定义调优,借鉴了如TabArena等表格式基准的设计理念。当前,针对关系学习的各类数据集和任务不断涌现,但缺乏可靠的可复现对比方式。我们同时发布首个α版TabPFN-Rel,专为关系学习设计的表型预测框架,在RelArena-α中排名首位,相较RDBLearn有显著提升。该结果表明,将关系数据库扁平化为单张表的方法在真实任务中仍具竞争力。为促进关系学习在学术界与工业界的落地应用,我们还发布了初始版RPI——一个模型无关的可预测接口,使早期采用者能便捷地在新数据库上定义问题,并调用任一已集成于RelArena-α的模型(包括TabPFN-Rel)进行求解。后续将根据社区反馈协同推进发展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This first release of Prior Labs in relational learning shows our continued commitment to open science. We open-source three pieces of software that we expect to accelerate research in the field towards meaningful real-world impact. We aim to steer further development based on feedback from, and in collaboration with, the community. Given the early stage of development, our $α$-release targets researchers and early-adopting practitioners. Over the past years, a variety of datasets and tasks for relational learning have emerged, but the community has not converged on a reliable, reproducible way to compare different methods on these tasks. Our $α$-release, RelArena-$α$, provides a unified framework for running and comparing baselines on RelBench v1 by standardizing data loading, evaluation protocols, tuning regimes, and support for systems with custom tuning, inspired by established tabular benchmarks such as TabArena. We plan to work with the research community to further develop RelArena-$α$ into a catalyst for progress in the relational learning community. We release the initial version of TabPFN-Rel, a purpose-built relational harness for TabPFN-3. Currently ranked first among models on RelArena-$α$, TabPFN-Rel makes key improvements upon RDBLearn. Beyond its ranking, TabPFN-Rel serves as a strong baseline, adding to the growing evidence that flattening a relational database into a single table remains competitive with specialized relational architectures on real-world tasks. To facilitate adoption of relational learning methods in research and industry, we release an initial $α$-version of our Relational Predictive Interface, RPI, an open-source, model-agnostic interface that enables early adopters to easily define problems on new databases and apply any model implemented in RelArena-$α$, including TabPFN-Rel, to these problems.
