Abstract:Text-to-SQL aims to convert natural language questions into executable SQL queries. While memory-based agent system improves complex SQL generation, existing memory design neglect historical experience and suffer from weak structure analysis, shallow semantic understanding, and poor schema alignment. To address these challenges, we propose SDAM. Specifically, SDAM identifies potential errors via a structure-difference aware reasoning tree, extracts deep semantic rules through contradiction-aware reflection, and enhances structural consistency using a schema-grounded memory evolution mechanism to bind memory with database schemas. We integrate SDAM into a Text-to-SQL framework named SDAM-SQL. Experiment shows that SDAM-SQL achieves 2.0 and 0.4 improvement on BIRD-dev and Spider-test compared with mainstream Text-to-SQL methods, showing the effectiveness of SDAM-SQL.
