Alignment-Guided Largest Table Overlap Size Estimation

Summary: ALORE estimates largest table overlap using a two-view row–column hypergraph, alignment-guided training signals, and domain-robust value mapping. It cuts MAE by up to 55% overall and 69% zero-shot, with up to 89× speedup, improving query-by-table retrieval. (summarized by gpt-6-luna on Oct 22 2026)
