DeepJoin: Joinable Table Discovery with Pre-trained Language Models
Summary: DeepJoin uses a fine-tuned pre-trained language model to embed textual columns, unifying equi- and semantic join discovery. Fixed-length embeddings enable sublinear ANN retrieval, delivering higher precision and up to 100× speedups. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
