arXiv:2606.18677v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tabular stream learning requires predictions on sequentially arriving examples under distribution shift. While standard methods adapt by updating model states, tabular foundation models (TFMs) make predictions conditioned on a labeled context in an in-context manner, making them a natural alternative for stream learning. This shifts the challenge from how to update the model to how to manage the context. We propose a future information view that yields three practical requirements for context management: preserve recent examples, retain uncerta
The proliferation of real-time data streams and the increasing demand for adaptive AI systems are driving innovation in stream learning and foundation models.
This work addresses a critical challenge in applying powerful tabular foundation models to dynamic, real-world data streams, potentially expanding their utility and impact.
The focus shifts from merely updating model states to intelligently managing contextual information for continuous learning in tabular foundation models.
