SVG-Score introduces a human‑aligned evaluation framework for text‑to‑SVG generation, addressing the shortcomings of existing image‑based metrics like CLIPScore that poorly capture SVG‑specific errors such as color, count, and spatial inaccuracies. The authors first demonstrate that CLIP‑based scores are largely insensitive to these errors and that generic Vision‑Language Models respond inconsistently across error types and styles. They then present a human‑annotated Semantic Alignment dataset and develop two complementary evaluators: a CLIP‑based scorer adapted to vector graphics and a VLM judge refined through supervised fine‑tuning and reward‑shaped reinforcement learning, enabling both fast large‑scale and expressive, interpretable assessment of SVG generators.

The authors first demonstrate that CLIP‑based scores are largely insensitive to these errors and that off‑the‑shelf Vision‑Language Models respond unevenly across error types and styles. They then create a human‑annotated Semantic Alignment dataset and develop two evaluators: a CLIP scorer adapted to vector graphics and a VLM judge trained with supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning, enabling both fast large‑scale and expressive, interpretable assessment of SVG generators.
VinciCoder is a unified framework for multimodal code generation that addresses the limitations of single-task models by training on a large-scale curated corpus of 1.3 M direct generation pairs and 300 k visual‑refinement tasks. It introduces a coarse‑to‑fine Visual Reinforcement Learning (ViRL) approach that uses visual similarity across multi‑scale patches to provide an implementation‑agnostic reward, improving alignment between rendered outputs and input visuals. Experiments on diverse benchmarks show VinciCoder outperforms existing methods, and ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of ViRL.
Chart2SVG is a multimodal large language model that transforms static raster chart images into editable SVGs enriched with semantic structure. By embedding chart‑specific semantic tokens into a vision‑language framework and training on the Beagle+ dataset of 33K distilled chart samples, the model captures both geometric primitives and their functional roles. The resulting SVGs are visually accurate and structurally consistent, and the accompanying Chart Structure Graph (CSG) exposes visual dependencies for interactive exploration, chart repurposing, and layout reuse.
Vision-language models (VLMs) have shown strong capabilities in generating visualization code from textual or visual specifications. However, real-world visualization authoring is inherently iterative: users frequently revise existing visualizations to repair flawed charts or adapt them to desired styles.
Back2Struct is a system that converts structured images—such as diagrams, charts, and flowcharts—into editable vector graphics code (SVG/XML). By predicting semantically rich, object-level SVG code rather than low-level pixel vectorization, it allows the generated graphics to be imported into tools like PowerPoint for easy editing, restyling, and reuse. The model is trained with supervised fine‑tuning and reward‑based learning that enforces syntactic validity, concise length, and visual fidelity to the input, leading to higher accuracy, editability, and user alignment compared to baselines.
Vision2Code is a new benchmark for image-to-code generation that covers 15 domains and 539 test examples without relying on reference source code. It evaluates generated programs by executing them and comparing rendered outputs to the original images using domain‑specific rubrics, yielding scores that correlate better with human judgments than generic metrics. The study shows domain variability in model performance and demonstrates that the scoring method can improve fine‑tuning of models like Qwen3.5‑9B and Phi‑4‑MM via rejection sampling.
Structured images, such as diagrams, charts, and flowcharts, are inherently symbolic and can be compactly represented in an editable format, yet in practice, they are often rendered as images, and the...
