Based on the idea that Decomposition for Enhancing Attention, we propose the workflow paradigm method named DEA-SQL with five major steps as shown in Figure. Check out our paper for more information.
# 1. Clone the repo git clone https://github.com/FlyingFeather/DEA-SQL.git cd DEA-SQL && mkdir data # 2. Make a conda environment conda create -n deasql python=3.9 conda activate deasql # 3. Install requirements pip install -r requirements.txt python nltk_downloader.py
Download the data set from the spider official website under DEA-SQL , unzip it and put it into the data folder.
We provide the data in drive if it is unable to download dataset from spider official website.
mkdir data
unzip spider.zip -d data
The directory structure should be as follows:

Please modify the OpenAI configuration in common/static_config.py and configure the relevant environment variables for the Azure OpenAI API.
Several important parameters:
- dataset: The name of dataset.
- few_shot_mode: The method of retrieving fewshot can be selected from [random, ques_tim, masked_ques_sim].
- few_shot_data: The data of retrieving fewshot can be selected from [train_merge_v1, train_merge_v5]
- insert_value: The number of lines that are inserted in database prompt.
- embedding_base_model: The base embedding model in retrieving few-shot step.
- sc_filter_nums: The number of information filter layer.
python main.py --save_file_name "dea-sql.txt" --dataset "spider" --mode "dev" --sample "False" --few_shot_mode "masked_ques_sim" --insert_value 3 --embedding_base_model "openai" --sc_filter_nums 3 --few_shot_data "train_merge_v5"
For the first evaluation, please perform: python nltk_downloader.py
