Corresponding Figure: 1001.0025v1-Figure2-1.png

JSON Scheme

  • contains-subfigure: boolean (check if contain subfigure)
  • paper-ID: the unique paper ID in the arXiv dataset
  • figure-ID: the extracted figure ID of paper (the index is not the same as the label in the caption)
  • figure-type: the figure type
  • 0-originally-extracted: original captions of figures
  • 1-lowercase-and-token-and-remove-figure-index: Removed figure index and the captions in lowercase
  • 2-normalized:
    • 2-1-basic-num: caption after replacing the number
    • 2-2-advanced-euqation-bracket: caption after replacing the equations and contents in the bracket
  • Img-text: texts extracted from the figure, such as the texts for labels, legends ... etc.

Within the caption content, we have three attributes:

  • caption: caption after each normalization
  • sentence: a list of segmented sentences
  • token: a list of tokenized words

Normalized Token

In the paper, we used [NUM], [BRACKET], [EQUATION], but we decided to use NUM-TK, BRACKET-TK, EQUAT-TK in the final data release to avoid the extra problems caused by "[]".

Token Description
NUM-TK Numbers (e.g., 0, -0.2, 3.44%, 1,000,000).
BRACKET-TK Text spans enclosed by any types of bracket pairs, including {}, [], and ().
EQUAT-TK Math equations identified using regular expressions.

Baseline Performance

To examine the feasibility and challenges of creating an image-captioning model for scientific figures, we established several baselines and tested them using SCICAP. The caption quality was measured by BLEU-4, using the test set of the corresponding data collection as a reference. We trained the models on each data collection with varying levels of data filtering and text normalization. Table 2 shows the results. We also designed three variations of the baseline models, Vision-only, Vision+Text, and Text-only. Table 3 shows the results.
