In-context learning (ICL) tackles downstream tasks conditioned on demonstrations. This paradigm relies heavily on neighbor-based matching between queries and demonstrations, limiting out-of-distribution (OOD) performance. For better generalization, rule-based inductive reasoning derives task-level regularities, which we term task-level inductive representations (TIR), before directly answering. However, existing methods lack generalizable inductive ability across diverse tasks. Inspired by meta-learning, we propose Cognitive-Decoupling meta-Induction (CoDI) for TIR-based inductive reasoning on general tasks. CoDI comprises a Cognitive-Decoupling Framework for query-blind TIR induction, and a Dual-Loop Meta-Inductive Learning method for cross-task inducer optimization. Empirically, CoDI achieves substantial performance gains on five ID and OOD benchmarks, and preserves OOD gains without explicit induction at inference.

Table entity linking (TEL) aims to map entity mentions in the table to their corresponding entities in a knowledge base (KB). The core of this task is to leverage structured contexts, specifically row and column contexts, to enhance the semantics of mentions in entity disambiguation. Most entity linking (EL) methods primarily focus on understanding sequential text contexts, making it difficult to adapt to the row and column structure of tables. Additionally, existing methods for TEL indiscriminately mix row and column contexts together, overlooking their semantic differences. In this paper, we explicitly distinguish the modeling of row and column contexts, and propose a method called RoCEL to capture their distinct semantics. Specifically, for row contexts in tables, we take the attention mechanism to learn the implicit relational dependencies between each cell and the mention. For column contexts in tables, we employ a set-wise encoder to learn the categorical information about the group of mentions. At last, we merge both contexts to obtain the final mention embedding for link prediction. Experiments on four benchmarks show that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art (SOTA) baseline by about 1.5% on the in-domain dataset, and by 3.7% on average across three out-of-domain datasets.
