Beyond End-to-End VLMs: Leveraging Intermediate Text Representations for Superior Flowchart Understanding (2025.naacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Flowcharts are typically presented as images, driving the trend of using vision-language models for end-to-end flowchart understanding. |
| Approach: | They propose a vision-language model (VLM) that generates textual representations from flowchart images and a textual Reasoner that performs question-answering based on the text representations. |
| Outcome: | Experiments on the FlowVQA and FlowLearn benchmarks demonstrate TextFlow’s state-of-the-art performance as well as its robustness. |
