SciCap: Generating Captions for Scientific Figures (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Low-quality captions are common in scientific articles and can decrease understanding . this paper aims to develop an end-to-end neural framework to generate informative, high-quality figure captions for scientific figures and charts. |
| Approach: | They propose an end-to-end neural framework to automatically generate captions for scientific figures from a large-scale dataset . they used figure-type classification, sub-figure identification, text normalization, and caption text selection to build models that caption graph plots, the dominant figure type. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can generate high-quality captions for scientific figures and charts from a large figure-caption dataset from arXiv. |
