SQL-R1: A Reinforcement Learning-based NL2SQL Model that Outperforms Larger Systems in Complex Queries with Transparent and Accurate SQL Generation

SQL-R1: A Reinforcement Learning-based NL2SQL Model that Outperforms Larger Systems in Complex Queries with Transparent and Accurate SQL Generation

Natural language interface to databases is a growing focus within artificial intelligence, particularly because it allows users to interact with structured databases using plain human language. This area, often known as NL2SQL (Natural Language to SQL), is centered on transforming user-friendly queries into SQL commands that can be directly executed on databases. The objective is…
