LLM Text-to-SQL benchmark analyzed by autonomy axis · 1 source tracked

A new paper revisits the field of LLM Text-to-SQL by proposing an autonomy-based taxonomy and an empirical benchmark analysis. The authors collected reported metrics and organized them along an inference-autonomy axis, spanning constrained, in-context, iterative, agentic, and reasoning-internalized generation. Their case study on the Spider benchmark compared various open-source models with and without chain-of-thought supervision against established baselines, revealing that increased autonomy comes at a cost and that chain-of-thought supervision primarily benefits more complex queries. AI

    Agentic-SQL Revisited: Autonomy-Based Taxonomy and Empirical Benchmark Analysis for LLM Text-to-SQL

    arXiv:2608.15389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based Text-to-SQL progress is reported across heterogeneous benchmarks, backbones, and inference protocols, making cross-system comparison fragile. We reframe the field as a leaderboard aggregation: we collect the metrics author…
