Leveraging Adjective-Noun Phrasing Knowledge for Comparison Relation Prediction in Text-to-SQL

Haoyan Liu, Lei Fang, Qian Liu, Bei Chen, Jian-Guang Lou, Zhoujun Li


Abstract
One key component in text-to-SQL is to predict the comparison relations between columns and their values. To the best of our knowledge, no existing models explicitly introduce external common knowledge to address this problem, thus their capabilities of predicting comparison relations are limited beyond training data. In this paper, we propose to leverage adjective-noun phrasing knowledge mined from the web to predict the comparison relations in text-to-SQL. Experimental results on both the original and the re-split Spider dataset show that our approach achieves significant improvement over state-of-the-art methods on comparison relation prediction.
