arXiv:2606. 00065v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated extraction of materials composition-property data from scientific literature has advanced considerably with the development of large language model-based pipelines; however, existing frameworks remain limited to textual and tabular content, overlooking the substantial proportion of quantitative property data reported exclusively in scientific figures.

arXiv:2607. 15176v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly used to interpret visualizations, yet current evaluations remain largely chart-centric and provide limited evidence of understanding of scientific visualization (SciVis).

arXiv:2607. 27084v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scientific images are the core elements of presenting experimental conclusions, elaborating system architecture, and supporting comparative arguments in scientific papers.

Scientific images are the core elements of presenting experimental conclusions, elaborating system architecture, and supporting comparative arguments in scientific papers. However, existing image quality assessment (IQA) methods are predominantly designed for natural photographs or AI-generated content, which cannot be directly applied to scientific papers.
