New AI Model Converts Raster Charts to Editable SVGs

Researchers have developed Chart2SVG, a novel multimodal large language model capable of converting static raster charts into editable Scalable Vector Graphics (SVGs). This model incorporates chart-specific semantic tokens to capture both geometric details and functional roles, enabling programmatic editing. To enhance structural recovery, a new dataset called Beagle+ was created, comprising 33,000 distilled chart samples. The system also constructs a Chart Structure Graph (CSG) to expose visual dependencies, facilitating interactive exploration and chart repurposing. AI

IMPACT Enhances interactive visualization tools by enabling programmatic editing and structural analysis of charts.

    Chart2SVG: Editable SVG Generation from Raster Chart Images

    arXiv:2608.26544v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Chart2SVG, a multimodal large language model that converts static raster charts into structurally organized, semantically enriched SVGs that support programmatic editing. By incorporating chart-specific semantic tokens in…
