Cracking SQL Barriers: An LLM-based Dialect Translation System
Summary: CrackSQL leverages LLMs to translate SQL dialects via function-based segmentation, normalization, and translation-irrelevant abstraction for long, multi-syntax queries. A Cross-Dialect Syntax Embedding Model with a Local-to-Global loop enables targeted fixes and iterative translation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
