Extracting data from a table within a paper in column answers

Elicit's columns will consider any tables within a paper when generating the answers for your columns. If Elicit uses information from a table, it will quote the table:

Elicit occasionally fails to extract and use information from some tables, depending on table complexity and formatting. You can see the tables that Elicit is able to read for a given paper by clicking on the paper and scrolling to the bottom:
