Developing and Benchmarking Verification Algorithms to Improve Text-to-SQL Generation
Summary: Formalizes Text-to-SQL verification without ground-truth labels, comparing round-trip critique with synthetic execution consistency. Flags 64% of generator errors, exposes widespread benchmark-label flaws, and enables selective generation that abstains on low-confidence queries. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Aug 28 2026)
