Researchers have introduced PIQL, a novel framework designed to accelerate and enhance the learning capabilities of tabular foundation models (TFMs). PIQL integrates privileged information (PI), such as aggregate dataset statistics and encodings of the data-generating program, which are only available during training. This approach allows TFMs to learn more efficiently and generalize better by reducing data and compute requirements. The framework establishes PI-guided pretraining as a practical method for improving foundation model performance. AI
