The paper presents a training‑free, agentic computer‑vision system that converts 2D structural framing plan PDFs into editable finite‑element model drafts. It uses a deterministic stage to extract geometric primitives, estimate scale, and recognize five entity classes via a drafting grammar, followed by an agentic stage that applies typed corrections and fail‑closed transactions. Evaluation on a 100‑plan benchmark shows high precision and recall across columns, beams, walls, braces, and openings, with scale estimates within 0.1% of reference.

AgenticCADedit introduces a stateful, tool‑mediated approach to multimodal 3D CAD editing, transforming the process from generating a single complete program to executing a sequence of incremental, verifiable actions on a persistent CAD state. By committing each step, inspecting geometry, and selectively reverting faulty operations, the method preserves partial progress and builds upon earlier edits. Experiments across three large language models show substantial gains in validity and acceptance, with the weakest baseline model’s validity rising from 51.0% to 94.8% and a token‑cost reduction of 66.7% compared to neuralCAD‑Edit.

The paper investigates why reasoning‑augmented text‑to‑image models like GoT‑R1 sometimes fail on compositional prompts. By separating the explicit textual plan from the decoder, the authors show that the decoder faithfully executes the plan while the planner often writes incorrect spatial relations, especially for phrasing‑dependent cues. Editing or replacing the plan improves image quality without retraining, demonstrating the viability of modular planner‑decoder architectures.

BlueprintAgent (BPA) is a multimodal agent that converts scanned reinforced‑concrete building blueprints into simulation‑ready frame models by treating a large language model (MLLM) as the primary reader and decision maker, while OCR and computer vision provide localized evidence. BPA implements engineering constraints as callable validators that trigger targeted MLLM revisits over specific regions, enabling precise beam‑column support, span count, and 3D continuity checks. In evaluations on 300 real scanned sheets from 20 projects, BPA achieved a macro‑averaged Beam F1 of 0.994, vastly outperforming single‑MLLM zero‑shot (0.301) and fixed‑pipeline (0.820) baselines.

arXiv:2608. 15591v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents deployed in production environments face a fundamental tension: the agent's behavior is frozen at deployment time, while the business rules and edge cases it must handle continue to evolve.

We study what happens when a single general-purpose large language model acts as the sole researcher on a long-horizon neural architecture design problem. The agent receives a scientific question, an initial hypothesis and motivation, a compute budget, and research affordances (source and experiment management, experiment tracking, literature access, and persistent memory), then autonomously proposes, implements, evaluates, and records experiments over an extended period.
ChipMEM introduces a verification‑grounded memory layer for electronic design automation agents that combines cross‑task procedural memory with within‑trajectory statistical guidance. The procedural component stores a skill only after it passes synthesis, simulation, or formal checks, while a Bayesian component ranks recovery strategies based on tool‑call outcomes. Experiments on RTLRewriter‑Bench and CVDP tasks show that ChipMEM improves equivalence‑passing outputs and area metrics compared to agents without memory.

Computer-aided design (CAD) for industrial components requires long-horizon procedural modeling, robust feature dependencies, editable parametric geometry, and production-grade B-Rep execution. Existing text-to-CAD methods have made promising progress in generating CAD programs from natural-language descriptions, but they still struggle when user prompts are ambiguous, underspecified, or only describe high-level design intent.
arXiv:2606. 05680v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have enabled the automatic synthesis (generation) of register-transfer level (RTL) code from natural language instructions, offering a promising pathway to accelerate chip design.
