To plan publication-ready figures and tables, draft a complete plan that inventories each visual by type, title, source artifact, paper section, and caption requirements, ensuring alignment with your modeling logic and paper narrative.

Figure and table type classification categorizes visuals by audience and purpose—Diagnostic, Comparison, Paper, or Appendix—and assigns each to the appropriate paper section to support claims and narrative flow.

Mapping paper figures to source artifacts involves explicitly linking each visual to its source file, drafting a caption, and tracing it to specific claims within the paper-writing workflow before final authorization.

Yes, figure planning supports end-to-end workflows from problem parsing to paper narrative, making it suitable for structuring visuals in mathematical modeling contest papers and ensuring publication-quality criteria for figures.

Type 3 figures must meet strict publication-quality criteria, requiring explicit captions, traceability to source artifacts, and proper section mapping to ensure they support the paper's claims before final modeler authorization.

The best way to organize figure and table inventories is to draft a complete plan for each subquestion, listing type, title, source artifact, target paper section, and caption requirements in a structured markdown document.
