How can LLMs edit PDF charts via natural language?
PlotEdit: Natural Language-Driven Accessible Chart Editing in PDFs via Multimodal LLM Agents
January 22, 2025
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.11233PlotEdit is a new method for editing charts within PDFs or scans using natural language instructions. It leverages a multi-agent system where different LLMs specialize in tasks like extracting data, identifying visual styles, generating code, interpreting user instructions, and performing the edits. These agents use multimodal feedback (numeric, visual, and code-based) to refine their output and ensure accuracy, a key aspect for robust LLM-based multi-agent systems. This approach outperforms existing methods, improving accessibility and simplifying chart editing.
