LOTUS (LLMs Over Tables of Unstructured and Structured Data) provides a declarative programming model and an optimized query engine for serving powerful reasoning-based query pipelines over structured and unstructured data! We provide a simple and intuitive Pandas-like API, that implements semantic operators.
For trouble-shooting or feature requests, please raise an issue and we'll get to it promptly. To share feedback and applications you're working on, you can send us a message on our community slack, or send an email (lianapat@stanford.edu).
If you're already familiar with Pandas, getting started will be a breeze! Below we provide a simple example program using the semantic join operator. The join, like many semantic operators, are specified by langex (natural language expressions), which the programmer uses to specify the operation. Each langex is parameterized by one or more table columns, denoted in brackets. The join's langex serves as a predicate and is parameterized by a right and left join key.
LOTUS' implements is the semantic operator programming model. Semantic operators as declarative transformations on one or more datasets, parameterized by a natural language expression, that can be implemented by a variety of AI-based algorithms. Semantic operators seamlessly extend the relational model, operating over tables that may contain traditional structured data as well as unstructured fields, such as free-form text. These composable, modular language- based operators allow you to write AI-based pipelines with high-level logic, leaving the rest of the work to the query engine! Each operator can be implemented and optimized in multiple ways, opening a rich space for execution plans, similar to relational operators.
