Fine-tunes every model parameter via gradient descent on resampled in-context batches, using the models' existing differentiable forward() path (the same Callback(requires_grad=True) mechanism already used by GradientExplainer) with a Recipe that swaps target processing for an identity pass-through so pre-encoded query labels can be compared against the raw per-estimator output.
Ports the complete benchmark/full-finetune feature branch (full fine-tuning for TabArena/BeyondArena, ScoringBench, and TALENT, plus the kumo-small entries and result-cache-collision fixes) onto current main as a single commit, since the two branches touch disjoint files and this preserves the final content exactly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removed outdated examples and added new ones for fine-tuning.
…ne-tuning harness - KumoTabular: fine-tuned models now deep-copy the shared pretrained network per fold (copy_per_fit=True); without it, every bagged fold trained in place on the same shared network object, so fold 2+ continued fine-tuning on top of fold 1's already-updated weights instead of starting from the pretrained checkpoint. - full_finetune: the regression loss now sizes its quantile levels to the model's actual output width and falls back to plain squared error for a single-column point-estimate head (TabFM), instead of silently scoring against a hardcoded 999-quantile assumption that only held for TabICLv2/KumoTabular. - beyondarena/main.py: key the result cache directory by the full fine-tuning hyperparameter string, matching tabarena/main.py, so different configs (e.g. different LRs) stop silently overwriting each other's cached results. - scoringbench/main.py: fold the fine-tuning config into the method name so a differently-configured rerun is a distinct identity to the runner's own cache check, instead of silently reporting the first run's stale result under the new config. - Collapse the four '-ft' model classes' identical _set_default_params override into one _FinetunedMixin. - talent/models.py: use .get() with the shared defaults for the fine-tuning config fields, consistent with the rest of the file, instead of raw dict indexing. - tabarena/beyondarena main.py: raise instead of silently ignoring --finetune_* flags passed to a non '-ft' model. - Trim repeated flag-enumeration prose from the three READMEs; fix two lint issues (an overlong docstring line, one unformatted call). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
SDMKumoTabularModel's custom __getstate__/__setstate__ replace the network with a placeholder and reload it from the shared registry whenever _shared_state is set, regardless of whether the model actually owns a private copy. Per AutoGluon's own SharedWeights semantics (owns_network()), a copy_per_fit model's fit holds a real, independently-trained copy that should pickle normally; only a genuinely shared (non-owned) network should go through the placeholder-and-reload path. Switch the check to owns_network() so a fine-tuned model's weights survive a pickle round-trip instead of being silently replaced by a freshly reloaded network. Investigated whether this was corrupting the campaign's TabArena results: direct instrumentation showed __getstate__/__setstate__ are never invoked in the outer_experiments=True execution path used there, so this fix doesn't change observed results in that path. It's kept as a correctness fix for the general contract (e.g. persisted/reloaded models, other execution modes) rather than as a fix verified against this specific campaign.

Condense multi-line comments and the full_finetune docstring down to their essential point, dropping restated-from-the-code mechanics. In the three READMEs, fold the redundant "KumoTabular (small)" bullet (--model kumo-small) into the main KumoTabular entry with a one-line note that it's the same model under the name its -ft pair uses, and replace the imprecise "kumo-tabular (large)" references with the actual --model value, kumo-tabular-large.

kumo-tabular (old) was renamed kumo-tabular-large and kumo-small was
renamed kumo-tabular-small; the fine-tuning work introduced its own
kumo-tabular-ft/kumo-small/kumo-small-ft names instead of following
that rename. Rename kumo-tabular-ft to kumo-tabular-large-ft and
kumo-small-ft to kumo-tabular-small-ft (SDMKumoTabularFinetunedModel
to SDMKumoTabularLargeFinetunedModel) for TabArena/BeyondArena.
Drop the redundant kumo-small zero-shot entry in TabArena/BeyondArena
and ScoringBench (including SDMKumoTabularSmallAliasWrapper) now that
nothing needs it as a name match for an -ft pair; kumo-tabular-small
already covers it. TALENT's kumo-small carried a distinct max_classes
cap for fine-tuning stability, so it's renamed to
kumo-tabular-small-ft rather than dropped.
Also drop README sentences that only restated the preceding example
("as opposed to the zero-shot ... baselines above") and update every
example to the new model names.

Adds a shared full_finetune() that can be reused by all benchmark scripts.
Classification result for Talent:
full fine tuning clearly improves model performance on average.

Results for scoring bench:
same story full ft is improves perf most of the time.
