Column Property Annotation (CPA) refers to the task of predicting the semantic relation between two columns and is a subtask of Table Annotation. The input of a CPA problem is most commonly a pair of columns, but can also be only one column. The labels used in CPA are properties from vocabularies. Some examples are name, price, datePublished etc.
CPA is usually a multi-class classification problem and is also referred to as column relation annotation or relation extraction in different works.

Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
4 leaderboard tables shown for this task, 4 with rows (a “benchmark” on this site is a table with at least one row, as on /sota), ordered by row count. “Best model” is the first row in the archive's own order at snapshot; nothing is re-ranked here and metric direction is not recorded in the archive. PwC's Trend sparklines are not in the archive, so that column is omitted.

Syntology column: samples harvested from the paper's repositories and executed on synthesized fixtures; “ran” is not a correctness claim and does not order the table. A dash means no Syntology record for that paper, not a recorded non-run. Read from the graph 2026-09-24.
Libraries
Not in the archive: the export carries no per-task library table, so there is nothing to show at snapshot 2025-07-28.

Syntology lines on 2 of the papers shown; no Syntology record for the others (a paper without an arXiv id cannot be joined to the graph, and absence from the graph layer is not a recorded non-run). “Ran” means the sample executed on a synthesized fixture, not that the paper's result was reproduced.
