CircuitReason-1k: Benchmarking Long-Horizon Visual-to-Symbolic Reasoning inElectrical Circuits
arXiv:2608. 09374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electrical circuit analysis requires more than recognizing components in an image.
The paper introduces an enhanced end‑to‑end circuit analysis framework built on Gemini 2.5 Pro, targeting engineering education. It addresses two key failure modes—circuit‑recognition hallucinations and reasoning‑process hallucinations—by adding a YOLO detector for source polarity re‑identification and an ngspice verification loop for iterative refinement. The resulting pipeline achieves 97.59 % accuracy on 83 undergraduate problems, markedly outperforming the baseline Gemini model and demonstrating significant gains across varied diagram styles and textbooks.

Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have revolutionized Electronic Design Automation (EDA), particularly through Large Language Models (LLMs) for circuit design tasks. However, their application to analog and mixed-signal domains remains limited by the lack of machine-readable representations of existing circuit design knowledge.
