MACReD: A Multi-Agent Collaborative Reasoning Framework for Reaction Diagram Parsing

ArXi:2605.28077v1 Announce Type: new Parsing chemical reaction diagrams from scientific literature is challenging due to heterogeneous layouts, intertwined visual elements, and the difficulty of integrating recognition and reasoning. Existing vision-language models advance multimodal understanding but still fail on complex diagrams, struggling to maintain spatial coherence and to integrate multidimensional information during reasoning.
