Abstract:Structured data is foundational to healthcare, finance, e-commerce, and scientific data management. Large structured-data models (LDMs) extend the foundation model paradigm to unify heterogeneous datasets for tasks such as classification, regression, and decision support. However, existing LDMs face major limitations. First, most rely on sample-wise self-attention, whose O(N^2) complexity limits the sample count. Second, linear sequence models often degrade representations due to hidden-state compression and artificial causal bias. Third, synthetic-only pre-training often fails to match real-world distributions. We propose FEAT, a linear-complexity foundation model for extremely large structured data. FEAT introduces a multi-layer dual-axis architecture that replaces quadratic attention with hybrid linear encoding. The architecture combines adaptive-fusion bi-Mamba-2 (AFBM) for local sample dependencies and convolutional gated linear attention (Conv-GLA) for global memory. This design enables linear-complexity cross-sample modeling while preserving expressive representations. To improve robustness, FEAT adopts a hybrid structural causal model pipeline and a stable reconstruction objective. Experiments on 11 real-world datasets show that FEAT consistently outperforms baselines in zero-shot performance, while scaling linearly and achieving up to 40x faster inference.
Abstract:Constrained Reinforcement Learning (CRL) aims to optimize decision-making policies under constraint conditions, making it highly applicable to safety-critical domains such as autonomous driving, robotics, and power grid management. However, existing robust CRL approaches predominantly focus on single-step perturbations and temporally independent adversarial models, lacking explicit modeling of robustness against temporally coupled perturbations. To tackle these challenges, we propose TCRL, a novel temporal-coupled adversarial training framework for robust constrained reinforcement learning (TCRL) in worst-case scenarios. First, TCRL introduces a worst-case-perceived cost constraint function that estimates safety costs under temporally coupled perturbations without the need to explicitly model adversarial attackers. Second, TCRL establishes a dual-constraint defense mechanism on the reward to counter temporally coupled adversaries while maintaining reward unpredictability. Experimental results demonstrate that TCRL consistently outperforms existing methods in terms of robustness against temporally coupled perturbation attacks across a variety of CRL tasks.
