Summary

An in-context pipeline turned normal-state summaries into executable scoring logic and beat tested baselines across 24 datasets.

LLM-Detector summarizes normal tabular data into statistics, causal dependencies and prototypes, then asks a language model to generate a scoring engine for deviation, structural inconsistency and density. The authors compare it with 15 baselines across 24 mixed and continuous datasets and report consistent gains without model fine-tuning. The evidence is benchmark-based; generated scoring code still needs review, security controls and domain validation.

Why it matters

An in-context pipeline turned normal-state summaries into executable scoring logic and beat tested baselines across 24 datasets.
