Tabular Domain

Tabular data, ubiquitous in various fields, presents unique challenges for machine learning due to its structured, heterogeneous nature. Current research focuses on improving model performance under distribution shifts, developing robust watermarking techniques for data protection, and leveraging transfer learning and self-supervised learning approaches, including contrastive learning and techniques based on binning or tree-regularized embeddings, to enhance representation learning. These advancements aim to improve the accuracy, robustness, and privacy of machine learning models trained on tabular data, impacting diverse applications from healthcare to finance.
