IRNet

Code for our ACL'19 accepted paper: Towards Complex Text-to-SQL in Cross-Domain Database with Intermediate Representation

Environment Setup

• Python3.6
• Pytorch 0.4.0 or higher

Install Python dependency via pip install -r requirements.txt when the environment of Python and Pytorch is setup.

Running Code

Data preparation

• Download Glove Embedding and put glove.42B.300d under ./data/ directory
• Download Pretrained IRNet and put IRNet_pretrained.model under ./saved_model/ directory
• Download preprocessed train/dev datasets from here and put train.json, dev.json and tables.json under ./data/ directory

Generating train/dev data by yourself

You could process the origin Spider Data by your own. Download and put train.json, dev.json and tables.json under ./data/ directory and follow the instruction on ./preprocess/

Training

Run train.sh to train IRNet.

sh train.sh [GPU_ID] [SAVE_FOLD]

Testing

Run eval.sh to eval IRNet.

sh eval.sh [GPU_ID] [OUTPUT_FOLD]

Evaluation

You could follow the general evaluation process in Spider Page

Results

Model	Dev Exact Set Match Accuracy	Test Exact Set Match Accuracy
IRNet	53.2	46.7
IRNet+BERT(base)	61.9	54.7
