SemJoin: Semantic Join Optimization
arXiv:2606. 29532v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Integrating unstructured data into relational database systems is increasingly important as demand grows for natural language querying and analysis.
arXiv:2604. 26180v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: With recent semantic query processing engines, semantic aggregation has become a primitive operator, enabling the reduction of a relation into a natural language aggregate using an LLM.

arXiv:2609.22223v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-form factuality verification is commonly implemented as a static decompose-search-verify pipeline, with separately prompted modules processing c...
arXiv:2606. 19819v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Decomposing compound sentences into atomic, verifiable claims is a prerequisite for reliable automated fact-checking.
The paper introduces DASE, a query engine designed to efficiently link unstructured data for multi-step reasoning tasks. DASE combines a multi-step reasoning model, a sparse materialized embedding-similarity join index (SemJI), and a co‑designed execution layer to perform multi‑attribute filtering, multi‑vector search, exact relational joins, and thresholded embedding‑similarity joins. In scientific discovery workloads, DASE outperforms traditional RDBMS, rerank, and vector‑database baselines by 6x to 46x in retrieval speed while maintaining comparable recall, and it serves as a high‑recall prefilter that reduces downstream LLM evaluation cost and improves accuracy on benchmarks such as SemBench E‑Commerce.
arXiv:2511. 03217v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel in generating fluent utterances but can lack reliable grounding in verified information.
arXiv:2609.24372v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In-context learning (ICL) based on large language models (LLMs) has shown promising potential in alleviating performance bottlenecks caused by the limi...
BudgetSchemaBench is a diagnostic tool for evaluating how different schema‑context budgets affect text‑to‑SQL systems. It automatically derives relevance labels from gold SQL, tests four budgets across 80 databases, and compares three schema representations while keeping table rankings fixed. The study shows that increasing the budget improves execution accuracy, especially for lexical retrieval, and that dense retrieval already captures most needed tables at low budgets.
arXiv:2606. 28601v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent progress in Text-to-SQL has been driven by stronger language models and prompting strategies, yet performance on real enterprise benchmarks such as Spider 2.
arXiv:2508. 01815v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Text-to-SPARQL maps natural-language questions to executable SPARQL queries over RDF knowledge graphs.
arXiv:2606. 15246v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Provenance-enhanced statements of the form "according to $X$, $\varphi$" are pervasive in contemporary knowledge graphs, especially in domains where graph content primarily represents claims, interpretations, and hypotheses (\emph{capta}) rather than observer-independent facts (\emph{data}).
arXiv:2604. 00660v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern data warehouses extend SQL with semantic operators that invoke large language models on each qualifying row, making per-row inference orders of magnitude more expensive than traditional SQL.
arXiv:2606. 20227v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have made significant progress in reasoning, particularly in deductive reasoning, which is crucial for high-stakes decision-making.
