The proposed novel deep embedding framework leverages lightweight deep neural networks to generate effective feature embeddings for tabular data in machine learning research. For numerical features, a two-step feature expansion and deep transformation technique captures copious semantic information. For categorical features, a unique identification vector for each entity is referred by a compact lookup table with a parameterized deep embedding function, transforming it into an embedding vector using a deep neural network. Experiments are conducted on real-world datasets for performance evaluation. The framework’s effectiveness is demonstrated through benchmarking against existing state-of-the-art methods.

This paper creates a new way to turn tabular data into useful feature embeddings that machines can understand. It does this by using special kinds of deep neural networks to capture important information in numerical and categorical features. This method is tested on real-world datasets and shows promise for improving machine learning models.
