SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the creation of publication-quality figures and tables from experiment results, saving researchers time and ensuring consistent visuals for academic papers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Data-driven figures: Generate line plots, bar charts, scatter plots, heatmaps, and multi-panel figures directly from experiment data.
  • Comparison tables: Produce LaTeX-ready tables that compare methods, results, and bounds for easy inclusion in manuscripts.
  • Workflow integration: Reads a Figure Plan (PAPER_PLAN.md) and data files (JSON/CSV) and outputs PDF figures to figures/ plus LaTeX include snippets for seamless paper assembly.

Quick Start

Provide your Experiment data and a Figure Plan, then run the figure-generation scripts to produce publication-ready figures in PDF format.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate publication-ready figures from CSV experiment data?

To generate publication-ready figures from CSV experiment data, provide your data files alongside a Figure Plan (PAPER_PLAN.md) to drive automated figure creation, outputting PDF figures and LaTeX snippets.

Can I create LaTeX-ready comparison tables directly from JSON results?

Yes, you can create LaTeX-ready comparison tables directly from JSON results by processing the data through the figure-generation workflow, which outputs LaTeX include snippets for seamless paper assembly.

What is the best way to automate multi-panel plot creation for an academic paper?

The best way to automate multi-panel plot creation for an academic paper is to use a Figure Plan (PAPER_PLAN.md) paired with Python plotting libraries like matplotlib to produce consistent PDF visuals.

Do I need a PAPER_PLAN.md file to generate plots for my manuscript?

Yes, you need a PAPER_PLAN.md file to drive automated figure creation, as the workflow reads this plan alongside your experiment data to produce publication-ready figures and tables.

What types of scientific plots can I produce for ML research workflows?

For ML research workflows, you can produce line plots, bar charts, scatter plots, heatmaps, and multi-panel figures directly from experiment data using Python plotting libraries.
