Scalable and Usable Relational Learning With Automatic Language Bias

Summary: AutoBias automatically induces data-driven language bias to guide relational model learning, reducing manual bias engineering. Efficient sampling and learning scale to large datasets, achieving comparable accuracy to manual bias with modest overhead. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
