In this tutorial, we implement Structured Data Models, NVIDIA’s new library that puts several pretrained foundation models for tables behind one PyTorch interface, and use it to make predictions without training. The library wraps TabICLv2 and KumoTabular for single tables and KumoRelational for whole relational databases, and each of them answers by in-context learning: we […]
