GitTables: A Large-Scale Corpus of Relational Tables

Summary: GitTables provides ~1M relational tables from GitHub, with a path to 10M+, enabling training on offline, non-HTML relational data. Unique: semantic-type annotations from Schema.org/DBpedia enable learned type detection, schema completion, and table-to-KG benchmarks for data management. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
