Organizations that cannot send data to a cloud API increasingly ask: how good is Text-to-SQL if the model must run on-premises on open weights, and which popular accuracy "recipes" are worth their compute? We answer with an honest, fully reproducible benchmark on the BIRD development split (n=1534, Execution Accuracy), evaluating three open model families across two generations -- Qwen2.
arXiv:2607. 06799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Evaluating uncertainty in AI-generated SQL queries requires estimating whether a query is correct, where correct means it executes to the same result as a human-written reference.

ESQ‑Bench is an Oracle‑first NL2SQL benchmark that introduces systematic complexity tiers and silent‑divergence evaluation across three enterprise schema levels. It provides six populated schemas (465 tables, 164,682 rows) on Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL Server, along with 550 gold‑validated question‑query pairs and a four‑metric evaluation harness. The benchmark reveals that state‑of‑the‑art models such as GPT‑4o and Claude Sonnet 4.6 experience significant drops in execution accuracy and high silent‑divergence rates as schema complexity increases, highlighting a gap between closed‑API models and open‑weight baselines on enterprise Oracle schemas.

SemVerBench is a benchmark that evaluates how well large language models (LLMs) understand and apply version-constraint resolution semantics, such as determining whether a version satisfies constraints like ^1.2.3 or >=2.0. The study finds that many models struggle with certain corner cases, with GPT‑5.1 performing poorly while Claude and Opus perform much better. The authors suggest that the failures stem from an activation/application gap rather than a lack of knowledge, and recommend that coding agents delegate version resolution to a dedicated resolver tool.

The paper evaluates nine on‑device named‑entity recognition models ranging from classical taggers to large language models, measuring not only accuracy but also latency and output validity. Using a silver‑gold benchmark derived from an LLM judge panel and a human‑validated corpus, the study shows that encoder‑based models achieve comparable accuracy to a 4 B instruct LLM while being much smaller, faster, and producing no malformed output. Confidence calibration of GLiNER is analyzed, revealing over‑confidence but improved reliability after temperature scaling and thresholding.
