LakeBench: A Benchmark for Discovering Joinable and Unionable Tables in Data Lakes
Summary: LakeBench: massive benchmark for discovering joinable and unionable tables in data lakes, with 16M real tables (1,600× larger than prior datasets) and 10k+ human-labeled queries across diverse categories. Evaluates effectiveness, efficiency, and scalability of join/union search methods and surfaces performance bottlenecks and open research challenges.
