NVIDIA Kumo Relational Outperforms Supervised Machine Learning on Relational Data, No Training Required

NVIDIA Kumo Relational Outperforms Supervised Machine Learning on Relational Data, No Training Required

ProofVendor claim only

Key points

  • NVIDIA Kumo Relational is a pre-trained relational foundation model that makes predictions directly on enterprise databases.
  • Kumo Relational is the first few-shot foundation model to outperform supervised machine learning on common relational benchmarks.
  • On RelBench V1 classification tasks, Kumo Relational outperforms gradient-boosted trees on expert-engineered features by nearly 4 AUROC points on average.
  • Today, we are introducing Kumo Relational (paper, documentation), a pre-trained foundation model that brings this paradigm to relational data.
