CHORUS: Foundation Models for Unified Data Discovery and Exploration
Summary: CHORUS unifies table-class detection, column-type annotation, and join-column prediction with foundation models, outperforming task-specific methods and often experts. It studies cross-model generalization and nondeterminism, positioning LLMs as a common substrate for data discovery. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
