Recent advancements in table-based question answering (table QA) have been driven by the development of table-specific reasoning strategies for leveraging large language models. Previous works employ sub-table-based reasoning, which involves matching query-relevant table values and aggregating them into sub-tables for precise reasoning. However, these approaches are limited to scenarios with query-relevant single tables, failing to handle real-world table QA settings that involve noisy multi-table sets. To address the challenges of real-world table QA, we propose **EASE**: **E**ntity-**A**ware **S**ub-table Generation for R**E**al-world Multi-table QA framework. Given a noisy multi-table set, EASE first extracts key entities from the question to construct a sub-table schema. It then populates this schema by utilizing a selected set of column values from the noisy multi-table set, thereby facilitating efficient and effective sub-table-based reasoning. We introduce a Noisy Multi-table QA dataset and conduct extensive experiments to evaluate EASE’s effectiveness on real-world table QA. Our results demonstrate that EASE effectively filters out irrelevant information while incorporating pertinent table values, leading to efficient and effective performance on real-world table QA.
