The paper introduces a novel framework that converts structural framing plans from PDF drawings into editable finite‑element model drafts without requiring task‑specific detector training. It combines a deterministic geometry extraction stage—estimating scale, recognizing five entity classes, and assembling a drafting grammar—with an agentic vision‑language refinement stage that proposes corrections, performs admission tests, and ensures fail‑closed transactions. Evaluation on a 100‑plan benchmark shows high accuracy, with scale within 0.1% and recall/precision values above 0.86 for all component types.

arXiv:2603. 08652v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent advancements in Unified Multimodal Models (UMMs) have significantly advanced text-to-image (T2I) generation, particularly through the integration of Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning.

The paper introduces GLANCE, a one‑pass block drafting method that enables lossless speculative decoding for vision‑language models. By using a block‑diffusion head that reads the fused vision‑language state, GLANCE eliminates the need for the drafter to process the image at every step, allowing it to fill an entire block in a single forward pass. Experiments show that GLANCE can decode up to 2.93× faster than autoregressive decoding while maintaining exact greedy decoding results across multiple tasks.

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.

arXiv:2607. 23191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-tuned code LLMs can be conditioned on a lightweight design-intent header to steer parametric CAD generation, but whether the model actually reads the header's content has not been tested under a metric independent of the conditioning itself, nor with a causal control.
