About this paper

Mingyu Jeon, Suwan Cho, Jae Young Suh

The authors add a JEPA-style latent-prediction objective to a tabular foundation model, using an EMA target encoder while letting the value head read the encoder field rather than the predictor. In a 20,000-step test, this avoided collapse: MSE was .5513 versus .9364 and effective rank 98.1 versus 1.5. At plateaus, JEPA lost to value-only prediction on both tasks in this setup.
