4DBInfer: A4D Benchmarking Toolbox for Graph-Centric Predictive Modeling on RDBs Minjie Wang
Given a relational database (RDB), how can we predict missing column values in some target table of interest? Although RDBs store vast amounts of rich, informative data spread across interconnected tables, the progress of predictive machine learning models as applied to such tasks arguably falls well behind advances in other domains such as computer vision or natural language processing. This deficit stems, at least in part, from the lack of established/public RDB benchmarks as needed for training and evaluation purposes. As a result, related model development thus far often defaults to tabular approaches trained on ubiquitous single-table benchmarks, or on the relational side, graph-based alternatives such as GNNs applied to a completely different set of graph datasets devoid of tabular characteristics. To more precisely target RDBs lying at the nexus of these two complementary regimes, we explore a broad class of baseline models predicated on: (i) converting multi-table datasets into graphs using various strategies equipped with efficient subsampling, while preserving tabular characteristics; and (ii) trainable models with well-matched inductive biases that output predictions based on these input subgraphs. Then, to address the dearth of suitable public benchmarks and reduce siloed comparisons, we assemble a diverse collection of (i) large-scale RDB datasets and (ii) coincident predictive tasks.
FiLM-Ensemble: ProbabilisticDeepLearningvia Feature-wiseLinearModulation
Acommon approach toquantify epistemic uncertainty, usable across a wide class of prediction models, is to train amodel ensemble. In a naïve implementation, the ensemble approach has high computational cost and high memory demand. This challenges in particular modern deep learning, where evenasingle deep network isalready demanding interms ofcompute and memory,and has givenrise toanumber ofattempts toemulate the model ensemble without actually instantiating separate ensemble members.

LastLetters F 500 15.0 - CoinFlip Y 500 37.0 - A.2.2 Datasetcreation Regarding "Last Letter Concatenation" and "Coin Flip", datasets are not publicly available sowe created the datasets following Wei et al. [2022] with a minor rephrasing of the question template. Asfor Coin Flip, we use the following template. A.5 PromptsForAnswerExtraction Table 9 and Table 10 summarizes a list of answer extraction prompts used for the experiments at Table1. Number Pick up the first number encounteredinthetext. MultipleChoice Pick up the first large letter encountered in the text. YesorNo Pickupthefirst"yes" or "no" encountered in the text after removing unnecessaryletters. Table 13 lists example texts generated by Zero-shot-CoT for each reasoning extraction template(SeeTable4). Dataset Question Answer SingleEq Q: A spaceship traveled 0.5 of a light-year from Earth to Planet X and 0.1 of a lightyearfromPlanetXtoPlanetY. A: Let's think step by step. So the total distance the spaceship traveled is 0.5 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.7 light-years. Therefore, the answer (arabic numerals) is: 0.7 light-years Q:Whilemaking desserts for abakesale,Victorused0.625 of a scoop of brown sugar as well as 0.25 of a scoop of whitesugar.Howmuchmore brownsugardidVictoruse? A: Let's think step by step.
