TAHOE: Text-to-SQL with Automated Hint Optimization from Experience

arXiv:2606. 12387v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have democratized database access through Text-to-SQL, but moving from prototypes to production remains difficult.

ProcArena: A Multi-Scenario Benchmark for LLMs on Direct and Interactive PL/SQL Development from Natural Language

ProcArena is a new benchmark for evaluating large language models on natural‑language to PL/SQL translation tasks. It contains 3,998 executable tasks across 157 databases, covering nine development subscenarios in PostgreSQL and Oracle, and supports both direct generation and interactive multi‑turn scenarios. Experiments on seven models show that even the best performers achieve only about 62% accuracy in direct mode and 58% in interactive mode, highlighting the difficulty of realistic NL‑to‑PL/SQL development.

EvoSQL: Memory-Augmented Critic-Generator Co-Evolution for Text-to-SQL

arXiv:2607. 20489v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-SQL has advanced rapidly with large language models, but complex database queries still require reasoning beyond one-shot generation, including multi-step decomposition, execution-based diagnosis, and targeted correction.

LIMIT: Less Is More for Instruction Tuning in Text-to-SQL

LIMIT (Less Is More for Instruction Tuning in Text-to-SQL) challenges the belief that large instruction corpora are necessary for effective Text-to-SQL models. The framework uses a four‑stage data‑centric process—difficulty‑aware filtering, chain‑of‑thought synthesis, LLM‑as‑judge quality scoring, and genetic algorithm optimization—to select a compact set of examples that still achieve full schema coverage. On the BIRD and Spider benchmarks, LIMIT’s 796 and 863 samples enable Qwen3‑8B to reach 69.1% and 88.9% execution accuracy, outperforming methods trained on twenty times more data and setting a new state‑of‑the‑art for open‑source approaches.
