The ICDAR2026 Competition on Multimodal Reasoning over Documents in Multiple Domains introduced a new Visual Question Answering benchmark that tests reasoning over documents from eight distinct domains such as business reports, scientific papers, and engineering drawings. Twenty valid submissions from eight teams were evaluated, featuring approaches ranging from zero‑shot vision‑language models to multi‑agent ensembles and fine‑tuned multimodal systems. Results indicate that the most effective systems employ structured evidence extraction, retrieval, verification, and orchestration across multiple components rather than single‑pass prompting.

ReFigBench is a benchmark that evaluates how well multimodal coding agents can transform scientific overview figures into editable PowerPoint slides, preserving text, layout, and document structure. The study uses 1,000 real figures from arXiv, testing agents from four model families across two workflows—direct code generation and a specialized PPTX workflow—within ten different harness configurations. Evaluation combines deterministic artifact checks, automated scoring by judges, and blinded human comparisons, revealing that workflow and harness choices significantly affect reconstruction quality and that even the best agents fall short of the ideal rubric.

LandingAgent is a new framework for generating landing pages that are tailored to a specific target. It uses a reference‑annotated dataset called LandingBench, which abstracts real landing pages into structured elements such as section sequences, layout patterns, tone descriptors, visual emphasis, and CTA structure. The agentic framework operates in three phases—profiling the target, building a reference‑guided wireframe, and refining the page through critique—resulting in pages that are more faithful to the target, concise, readable, aesthetically pleasing, and structurally diverse compared to direct prompting.
