Cornet: Learning Spreadsheet Formatting Rules By Example
Summary: Cornet synthesizes spreadsheet conditional-formatting rules from only one or two user-formatted examples. It combines symbolic rule enumeration (clustering and iterative trees) with neural ranking, exposed as an Excel add-in. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
