Mitra-v2 Regressor

Mitra-v2 regressor is a tabular foundation model that is pre-trained on purely synthetic datasets sampled from a mix of random regressors, including the new Hybrid SCM prior. It is the second generation of the Mitra regressor ( autogluon/mitra-regressor ), pre-trained with a 10x longer context, three times as many features, and an improved optimizer, and it replaces the scalar mean-squared-error head of Mitra-v1 with a 1,000-bin distributional head. On the TabArena and TALENT benchmarks it delivers state-of-the-art accuracy at the level of TabFM and EXAONE Tabular, while surpassing TabPFN-3 by a wide margin. The classification model is at autogluon/mitra-classifier-2 , and the inference and fine-tuning code with our evaluation results is at autogluon/mitra-finetune .

Architecture

Mitra-v2 is based on a 12-layer 2D Transformer of 76.7 M parameters (attention across rows and across columns), pre-trained by incorporating an in-context learning paradigm. Regression is cast as classification over 1,000 target bins: the model predicts a distribution over bins and the point prediction is the mean of that distribution. Apart from this head the architecture is unchanged from Mitra-v1.

Usage

To use Mitra-v2 regressor, install AutoGluon and the mitra-finetune package by running:

pip install uv
uv pip install "autogluon.tabular[mitra]>=1.6" "tabarena>=0.1.0"
uv pip install git+https://huggingface.co/autogluon/mitra-finetune

A minimal example showing how to fine-tune and predict with the Mitra-v2 regressor using the same recipe as our reported results (50-step fine-tuning with 8-fold bagging). The recipe fine-tunes and bags eight copies of the model and requires a CUDA GPU; each predict call runs one bagged fine-tune:

import pandas as pd
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.datasets import fetch_california_housing
from sklearn.metrics import root_mean_squared_error
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
from mitra_finetune import MitraFinetune

# Load dataset
housing_data = fetch_california_housing()
X = pd.DataFrame(housing_data.data, columns=housing_data.feature_names)
y = pd.Series(housing_data.target, name="target")
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
X_train, y_train = X_train.iloc[:2000], y_train.iloc[:2000]   # small subsample for a quick example

# Download the Mitra-v2 regressor weights
ckpt_dir = snapshot_download("autogluon/mitra-regressor-2")

# Fine-tune and predict
model = MitraFinetune(checkpoint_dir=ckpt_dir, problem_type="regression")
model.fit(X_train, y_train)
pred = model.predict(X_test)
print("RMSE:", root_mean_squared_error(y_test, pred))

The mitra-finetune package is required for regression: stock AutoGluon's Mitra regressor expects the scalar head of Mitra-v1, whereas these weights carry the 1,000-bin head, which the package wires into AutoGluon at fit time.
