SYNTHONY: A Stress-Aware, Intent-Conditioned Agent for Deep Tabular Generative Models Selection
Son, Hochan, Lin, Xiaofeng, Ni, Jason, Cheng, Guang
Deep generative models for tabular data (GANs, diffusion models, and LLM-based generators) exhibit highly non-uniform behavior across datasets; the best-performing synthesizer family depends strongly on distributional stressors such as long-tailed marginals, high-cardinality categorical, Zipfian imbalance, and small-sample regimes. This brittleness makes practical deployment challenging, especially when users must balance competing objectives of fidelity, privacy, and utility. We study {intent-conditioned tabular synthesis selection}: given a dataset and a user intent expressed as a preference over evaluation metrics, the goal is to select a synthesizer that minimizes regret relative to an intent-specific oracle. We propose {stress profiling}, a synthesis-specific meta-feature representation that quantifies dataset difficulty along four interpretable stress dimensions, and integrate it into {SYNTHONY}, a selection framework that matches stress profiles against a calibrated capability registry of synthesizer families. Across a benchmark of 7 datasets, 10 synthesizers, and 3 intents, we demonstrate that stress-based meta-features are highly predictive of synthesizer performance: a $k$NN selector using these features achieves strong Top-1 selection accuracy, substantially outperforming zero-shot LLM selectors and random baselines. We analyze the gap between meta-feature-based and capability-based selection, identifying the hand-crafted capability registry as the primary bottleneck and motivating learned capability representations as a direction for future work.

Program Synthesis and Semantic Parsing with Learned Code Idioms
Program synthesis of general-purpose source code from natural language specifications is challenging due to the need to reason about high-level patterns in the target program and low-level implementation details at the same time. In this work, we present Patois, a system that allows a neural program synthesizer to explicitly interleave high-level and low-level reasoning at every generation step. It accomplishes this by automatically mining common code idioms from a given corpus, incorporating them into the underlying language for neural synthesis, and training a tree-based neural synthesizer to use these idioms during code generation. We evaluate Patois on two complex semantic parsing datasets and show that using learned code idioms improves the synthesizer's accuracy.
