ArcheType: A Novel Framework for Open-Source Column Type Annotation using Large Language Models

Summary: ArcheType uses LLMs for fully zero-shot column type annotation via context sampling, prompt serialization, and label remapping. It establishes new zero-shot SOTA, ships three domain benchmarks, and when combined with classical CTA beats fine-tuned DoDuo. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
