Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made significant progress in chart understanding, generation, and editing, but their ability to annotate existing charts remains underexplored. Annotating charts is a common yet challenging communicative task, requiring models to infer intended messages, interpret chart semantics, and place appropriate textual or graphical elements.

ChartDensity-Bench is a benchmark designed to evaluate multimodal large language models (MLLMs) on their ability to reconstruct structured numerical data from scientific charts that vary in visual density. The benchmark uses charts paired with source-level ground-truth data and systematically changes the number of simultaneously presented charts (k = 1, 3, 6, 9) to assess how density affects reconstruction performance. A multi‑dimensional evaluation framework measures structural reliability, reconstruction completeness, parseability, and numerical fidelity, revealing that numerical reconstruction generally worsens as visual density increases, with varying degrees of degradation across different models.

DEEPCHART is a new benchmark that evaluates large language models (LLMs) on faithful data‑science chart generation. It contains 1,482 expert‑annotated instances from scientific papers, financial filings, and ecosystem reports, and assesses chart creation through an Extract–Reason–Visualize pipeline. Experiments show that while LLMs can produce visually plausible charts, they frequently hallucinate data at the extraction and reasoning stages, especially in long, noisy, and multimodal contexts.
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.

arXiv:2510. 04514v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent multimodal LLMs have shown promise in chart-based visual question answering, but their performance declines sharply on unannotated charts-those requiring precise visual interpretation rather than relying on textual shortcuts.
