SchemaRAG: A Schema-aware Retrieval-Augmented Generation Framework for Text-to-SQL
Summary: Schema-aware RAG for Text-to-SQL: fine-tuned SchemaLinker distills CoT/GRPO to align NL with schema items, plus schema-conditioned example retrieval. Pareto-optimal candidate selection boosts robustness/validity, outperforming prior LLM Text-to-SQL baselines. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Apr 11 2026)
