| Challenge: | Recent LLM-based Text-to-SQL methods suffer from performance degradation on “huge” databases and complex user questions that require multi-step reasoning. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that integrates a decomposer agent and auxiliary agents to generate SQL queries from natural language text. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves comparable execution accuracy on SQL-Llama tasks compared to the baseline model. |
SynTQA: Synergistic Table-based Question Answering via Mixture of Text-to-SQL and E2E TQA (2024.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Text-to-SQL parsing and end-to end question answering have yet to be compared and their synergy remains unexplored. |
| Approach: | They propose a Synergistic Table-based Question Answering approach that integrates different models via answer selection. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach improves on multiple benchmarks and on large scale datasets. |
Towards Generalizable and Robust Text-to-SQL Parsing (2022.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Text-to-SQL parsers must be generalizable and robust against input perturbations. |
| Approach: | They propose a novel framework to learn text-to-SQL parsing in stages to improve parser's ability to acquire general SQL knowledge instead of capturing spurious patterns. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on the Spider, SParC, and CoSQL datasets. |
Decoupled Dialogue Modeling and Semantic Parsing for Multi-Turn Text-to-SQL (2021.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent work on Text-to-SQL for multi-turn dialogue has attracted great interest . current approaches mostly employ end-to end models and face data sparsity problems . |
| Approach: | They propose a decoupled multi-turn text-to-SQL framework where dialogue context is explicitly solved by an utterance rewrite model and a single-turn Text-toSQl parser are proposed. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms existing models on SParC and CoSQL datasets without annotated in-domain data. |
Battle of the Large Language Models: Dolly vs LLaMA vs Vicuna vs Guanaco vs Bard vs ChatGPT - A Text-to-SQL Parsing Comparison (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a number of open-source large language models claim to be performing better than commercial ones . however, these models fall short of the performance achieved by closed-source models like GPT-3.5 . |
| Approach: | They evaluate six popular large language models against each other to evaluate their performance . authors say open-source models are not as effective as those built by commercial models . |
| Outcome: | a new set of models claim to match or surpass the language understanding abilities of commercial models . the results show that the models performed far below the performance of closed-source models compared to open-source ones . |
