We focus on the Cross-lingual Text-to-SQL semantic parsing, where the parsers are expected to generate SQL for non-English utterances based on English database schema. Intuitively, English translation as a side information is an effective way for bridging the language gap, while the noise introduced by translation system may effect the parser effectiveness.

In the dispersion problem for ordered intervals, the input is an ordered list of intervals on the real line, and the task is to select one point from each interval, such that the ordering of points along the line respects the given ordering of intervals and such that the points are “far apart” from each other.
