# UCI Tabular Benchmark Sample
This repository contains a small collection of tabular datasets mirrored from the UCI Machine Learning Repository and prepared for convenient experimentation.
## Contents
The datasets are organized by common ML task type:
### Binary Classification
Adult dataset
Bank Marketing dataset
### Multiclassification
Covertype dataset
Statlog (Shuttle) dataset
### Regression
Year Prediction MSD dataset

## Modifications and Data Processing Notes
Some modifications may have been applied for usability and consistency. These modifications are intended to be non-substantive and not to change the meaning of the data.
Typical changes include:
- Adding **column headers** where the original files did not include headers.
- Converting original formats (for example space-separated or other delimiters) into **`.csv`**.
- Normalizing line endings and basic formatting fixes to improve parsing.
- In some cases, reorganizing files into a standard folder structure (for example `train.csv` and `test.csv`).
Unless explicitly stated in a dataset folder README (if present), no attempt was made to:
- Remove rows or features
- Alter feature values
- Rebalance classes
- Impute missing values
If you require a byte-for-byte identical copy of the upstream distribution, please download directly from the corresponding UCI page.
## Missing Values
Missing values are preserved as in the upstream sources. Depending on the dataset, missingness may appear as empty fields, `?`, or other dataset-specific markers. Refer to each dataset's UCI documentation for the authoritative description.
## Intended Use
This pack is intended for:
- Tabular model benchmarking (linear models, tree models, neural networks)
- Privacy and security research on tabular learning pipelines, including:
- reconstruction and gradient inversion attacks
- defenses such as clipping, noise injection, discretization, constraint-aware decoding
- evaluating reconstructibility using feature-level and record-level metrics
It is not intended for making decisions about individuals or for any high-stakes deployment
