# SchemaPile Foreign Key Detection Model (Starcoder)

## Model Description

In this repository we are introducing **starcoder-schemapile-fk**. It's a language model, based on [BigCode/starcoder](https://huggingface.co/bigcode/starcoder) fine-tuned for predicting foreign key relationships in relational database schemas.

## Training Data

Forein key pairs extracted from [SchemaPile-Perm](https://schemapile.github.io), a large collection of relational database schemas.

## Evaluation Data

We evaluate the foreign key detection accuracy of [starcoder-schemapile-fk](https://huggingface.co/tdoehmen/starcoder-schemapile-fk) and [t5-schemapile-fk](https://huggingface.co/tdoehmen/t5-schemapile-fk) on schemas from [Spider](https://yale-lily.github.io/spider), [BIRD-SQL](https://bird-bench.github.io/), and [CTU PRLR](https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.03086).

## Training Procedure

The model was trained, using 4x A100 40GB GPUs with DeepSpeed ZeRO-3 offloading, and following hyperparamters: 

- learning_rate: 2.0e-05
- num_train_epochs: 3
- gradient_accumulation_steps: 8
- per_device_train_batch_size: 4
- bf16: true
- warmup_ratio: 0.03
- weight_decay: 0.0

See [Training Code](https://github.com/amsterdata/schemapile/tree/main/experiments/foreign_key_detection/starcoder_finetune).

## How to Use

We recommend using the provided prompt template and constrained output using jsonformer:

Example Prompt:
```
You are given the following SQL database tables: 
staff(staff_id, staff_address_id, nickname, first_name, middle_name, last_name, date_of_birth, date_joined_staff, date_left_staff)
addresses(address_id, line_1_number_building, city, zip_postcode, state_province_county, country)
Output a json string with the following schema {table, column, referencedTable, referencedColumn} that contains the foreign key relationship between the two tables.
```

Example Output:
```
{'table': 'staff',
 'column': 'staff_address_id',
 'referencedTable': 'addresses',
 'referencedColumn': 'address_id'}
```

To run the model locally, we recommend using our end-to-end [Example Notebook](https://github.com/amsterdata/schemapile/blob/main/experiments/foreign_key_detection/starcoder-schemapile-fk-example.ipynb) (requires a single A100 40GB).
