Relational databases (RDBs) remain the cornerstone of modern data systems and support diverse predictive tasks. Recent relational deep learning (RDL) methods enable end-to-end prediction by converting RDBs into graphs, where rows are represented as nodes and inter-table interactions are represented as edges, and then applying graph-based models for representation learning. Despite the strong capability of RDL, effective self-supervised pre-training for RDBs remains non-trivial. RDB tasks often require multi-faceted information across different perspectives and granularities. For example, user churn classification may rely more on interaction patterns, whereas consumption value prediction requires both user-item behaviors and intrinsic user attributes for fine-grained regression. Such heterogeneous needs challenge RDB representation learning, as pre-training objectives should cover comprehensive information for downstream adaptation. However, existing SSL methods typically derive supervision from a single facet, such as node-level intrinsic attributes or subgraph-level relational structures, providing limited adaptability. To this end, we propose RelPrism, a multi-faceted self-supervised learning framework for RDBs. RelPrism constructs intrinsic, relational, and hybrid attributes from distinct perspectives, and applies multi-granularity clustering to each perspective to form corresponding pseudo-task pools. Pre-training over these pools exposes representations to broader perspectives and granularity levels, yielding a stronger basis for downstream adaptation. Experiments on 14 tasks across 5 real-world datasets show that RelPrism improves ROC-AUC by 4.15% for classification and reduces MAE by 10.75% for regression over state-of-the-art baselines.

Large language model-based (LLM-based) multi-agent systems (MAS) are increasingly used to extend agentic problem solving via role specialization and collaboration. MAS workflows can be naturally modeled as directed computation graphs, where nodes execute agents/sub-workflows and edges encode dependencies and message passing. However, implementing complex graph workflows in current frameworks still requires substantial manual effort, offers limited reuse, and makes it difficult to integrate heterogeneous external context sources. To overcome these limitations, we present MASFactory, a graph-centric framework for orchestrating LLM-based MAS. It introduces Vibe Graphing, a human-in-the-loop approach that compiles natural-language intent into an editable workflow specification and then into an executable graph. In addition, the framework provides reusable components and pluggable context integration, as well as a visualizer for topology preview, runtime tracing, and human-in-the-loop interaction. We evaluate MASFactory on seven public benchmarks, validating both reproduction consistency for representative MAS methods and the effectiveness of Vibe Graphing. Our code (https://github.com/BUPT-GAMMA/MASFactory) and video (https://youtu.be/ANynzVfY32k) are publicly available.
