SMARTFEAT: Efficient Feature Construction through Feature-Level Foundation Model Interactions
Summary: SMARTFEAT uses foundation models to synthesize informative new features via feature-level FM interactions, guided by an intelligent operator selector to avoid exhaustive operator/feature combinations. A function generator emits efficient dataframe/lambda transformations (not per-row FM calls), enabling scalable, cost- and latency-efficient feature construction for large datasets.
