SQUiD: Synthesizing Relational Databases from Unstructured Text

Proceedings of the 2025 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing

Relational databases are central to modern data management, yet most data exists in unstructured forms like text documents. To bridge this gap, we leverage large language models (LLMs) to automatically synthesize a relational database by generating its schema and populating its tables from raw text. We introduce SQUiD, a novel neurosymbolic framework that decomposes this task into four stages, each with specialized techniques. Our experiments show that SQUiD consistently outperforms baselines across diverse datasets. Our code and datasets are publicly available at: https://github.com/Mushtari-Sadia/SQUiD.
