Sema: A High-performance System for LLM-based Semantic Query Processing
Summary: SemaSQL makes LLM operators first-class in DuckDB, embedding natural-language expressions in SQL for end-to-end optimization. Constraint-aware rewriting and adaptive execution reorder/fuse operators and batch prompts, yielding 2–10× speedups under accuracy and token/latency objectives.
