# Model Information

This model is the reasoning model for Text2SQL task introduced in [Think2SQL: Reinforce LLM Reasoning Capabilities for Text2SQL](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.15077)


This model is a fine-tuned version of [Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct) on the [simone-papicchio/bird](https://huggingface.co/datasets/simone-papicchio/bird) dataset.
It has been trained using [TRL](https://github.com/huggingface/trl). 



## Quick start

The best model performance are given with its System and User prompt.
The model is intended to use with three input: question, evidence and the database schema. 


Starting with `transformers >= 4.43.0` onward, you can run conversational inference using the Transformers `pipeline` abstraction or by leveraging the Auto classes with the `generate()` function.

Make sure to update your transformers installation via `pip install --upgrade transformers`.

```python
import transformers
import torch
model_id = "simone-papicchio/Think2SQL-7B"
pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
    device_map="auto",
)

system_message = (
    "You are a helpful AI Assistant that provides well-reasoned and detailed responses. "
    "You first think about the reasoning process as an internal monologue and then provide the user with the answer. "
    "Respond in the following format: <think>\n...\n</think>\n<answer>\n...\n</answer>"
).strip()

user_message = (
    "Answer the following question with the SQL code. Use the piece of evidence and base your answer on the database schema. "
    "Given the question, the evidence and the database schema, return in the <answer> tags only the SQL script that addresses the question.\n"
    "Question:\n{question}\n\n"
    "Evidence:\n{evidence}\n\n"
    "Database Schema:\n{schema}\n\n"
    "Return only the SQL script enclosed in <answer> tags."
).strip()

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": system_message},
    {"role": "user", "content": user_message},
]

outputs = pipeline(
    messages,
    max_new_tokens=30_000,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.95
)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][-1])
```

This model was trained with GRPO, a method introduced in [DeepSeekMath: Pushing the Limits of Mathematical Reasoning in Open Language Models](https://huggingface.co/papers/2402.03300).
