In plain words: It turns English questions into database queries by combining each table column's name and data type with word meanings pulled from a large text-trained language model. On a standard set of English questions paired with SQL, it answered more correctly than any earlier system. AbstractIn this work, we present X-SQL, a new network architecture for the problem of parsing natural language to SQL query. X-SQL proposes to enhance the structural schema representation with the contextual output from BERT-style pre-training model, and together with type information to learn a new schema representation for down-stream tasks. We evaluated X-SQL on the WikiSQL dataset and show its new state-of-the-art performance. | |
