This repository contains the TabuLa-8B (Tabular Llama-8B) model. 
TabuLa-8B is a foundation model for prediction (classification and binned regression) on tabular data.

TabuLa-8B is described in the paper "Large Scale Transfer Learning for Tabular Data via Language Modeling."

For more details on the model, see the paper, which includes a Model Card detailing the model architecture, training, and evaluation.
TabuLa-8B was trained with [rtfm](https://github.com/mlfoundations/rtfm), 
using the [T4 dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mlfoundations/t4-full).

TabuLa-8B is built with Meta Llama 3.

# Usage and Examples

You can load the model with `transformers` via
```
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mlfoundations/tabula-8b")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mlfoundations/tabula-8b")
```

For more information on how to prepare data and run inference, see the examples in [rtfm](https://github.com/mlfoundations/rtfm).
