SciDiagramEdit: Learning to Edit Scientific Diagrams from Paper Revisions
Editing the figures in a research paper is a routine and time-consuming part of everyday research practice: authors relabel components, rearrange panels, and restyle visuals as they revise their manuscripts. Automating this editing workflow under a natural-language instruction, however, is challenging, because a scientific figure is a dense infographic in which heterogeneous visual elements such as schematics, plots, photos, captions, and arrows are composed under a tight visual grammar to advance a specific argument. To address this, we present SciDiagramEdit, a benchmark and skill-evolution
