Symbolic Graphics Programming with Large Language Models
arXiv:2509. 05208v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel at program synthesis, yet their ability to produce symbolic graphics programs (SGPs) that render into precise visual content remains underexplored.

Vision2Code: A Multi-Domain Benchmark for Evaluating Image-to-Code Generation
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.

Editable Visual Design
Editable Visual Design introduces a new design paradigm that combines a Coding Agent with a Vision‑Language Model (VLM) and an image generation model. The VLM acts as the creative brain, understanding requirements, planning tasks, and judging aesthetics, while the image generator produces isolated visual assets on demand. The agent follows an "imagine first, then act" workflow, generating assets, writing native HTML/CSS, and refining the design through visual feedback, ultimately producing editable, layer‑wise artifacts with real text that can be adjusted via a graphical interface.

VisEditBench: Can Vision-Language Models Edit Visualization Code from Multimodal Feedback?
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.

VGA-BenchV2: An Expanded Unified Benchmark and Multi-Model Framework for Evaluating Video Aesthetics and Generation Quality
VGA‑BenchV2 is an expanded, human‑aligned benchmark and optimization framework that jointly evaluates video generation quality and aesthetic value. It builds on the original VGA‑Bench taxonomy, adding 52 sub‑dimensions and 1,016 curated prompts to generate over 60,000 videos from 12 mainstream models. The benchmark significantly enlarges human supervision with 36,000 task‑level annotations and introduces a hybrid evaluator (VAQA‑Net, VTag‑Net, VGQA‑Net) that aligns well with human judgments and can be used as a reward model for reinforcement‑learning fine‑tuning.
