Identifiability of Relational Queries in Multi-View Pretraining

Real-world data spans tables, documents, and semi-structured files with implicit semantics. Querying this data requires integrating evidence across inconsistent schemas and formats, yet existing approaches either demand costly manual engineering or bypass structure entirely. We present a system that automatically discovers an executable schema from raw multi-source data and uses it as a shared contract for knowledge graph construction and query-time retrieval. A closed-world field catalog constrains LLM-based schema discovery to attested fields; deterministic structural analysis infers identity keys, foreign keys, and source hierarchy; and the resulting schema drives extraction, deduplication, and cross-source linking into a provenance-aware knowledge graph. At query time the schema -- optionally extended via a monotonic protocol -- conditions a multi-tool agent routing retrieval across structured lookup, graph traversal, and vector search, returning grounded answers with traceable citations. In controlled zero-shot comparisons using the same LLM, data, and evaluation harness, the system improves over retrieval-only and decomposition-based baselines across four QA benchmarks, with ablations showing that schema-conditioned routing, structural intelligence, and schema-guided construction each contribute to the gains.

Relational learning is a challenging problem that has motivated a wide range of approaches, including graph-based models (e.g., graph neural networks, graph transformers), tabular methods (e.g., tabular foundation models), and sequence-based approaches (e.g., large language models), each with its own advantages and limitations. We propose RelAgent, an LLM-based autonomous data scientist for relational learning, which operates in two phases. In the search phase, an LLM agent uses database, validation, and evaluation workspace tools to construct SQL feature programs and select a predictive model. In the inference phase, the resulting program is executed without further LLM calls. The final predictor consists of SQL queries and a classical model, enabling fast, deterministic, and intrinsically interpretable predictions: features are human-readable queries, and predictions depend only on the resulting query-defined feature map, enabling scalable deployment using standard database systems.

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.
