AutoTQA: Towards Autonomous Tabular Question Answering through Multi-Agent Large Language Models

Summary: AutoTQA: multi-agent LLM framework for multi-table tabular QA across heterogeneous systems, decomposing queries into Planner→Engineer→Executor with Critic/User agents and agent-scheduling. Provides LinguFlow low-code builder and connectors; outperforms prior single-table TQA on four datasets. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
