ChartArena: Benchmarking Chart Parsing across Languages, Scenarios, and Formats 文章

arXiv:2606.01348v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Charts are a primary medium for conveying quantitative and relational information, yet systematically evaluating chart parsing models remains difficult. Existing benchmarks focus on narrow chart types and leave diagrammatic structures such as flowcharts and mind maps largely unaddressed, while models produce outputs in incompatible formats, and datasets rarely include the printed or hand-drawn images encountered in practice. To address these issues, we introduce ChartArena, a comprehensive bilingual benchmark covering eight chart families spanning both numeric charts and diagrammatic structures, each evaluated across three visual scenarios: digital renderings, printed photos, and hand-drawn photos. The dataset is built via a human-agent collaborative annotation pipeline with multi-stage human verification to ensure annotation reliability.
