Researchers have introduced PolyChartQA, a new dataset designed to evaluate question-answering capabilities on multiple related charts. The dataset contains over 2,600 question-answer pairs derived from 534 multi-chart images sourced from computer science publications. Evaluations of nine state-of-the-art multimodal language models revealed a significant performance drop on human-authored questions compared to machine-generated ones, though a proposed prompting method showed improvement.
