用多智能体系统提升科学图表分析能力,显著改善复杂信息理解

Anagent For Enhancing Scientific Table & Figure Analysis

  • 设计四智能体框架,分步完成规划、检索、推理与优化
  • 在9个领域170子领域测试中,准确率提升最高达42.12%
  • 适合需要精准解读科研图表的研究者和AI开发者

科学研究中的分析需准确理解复杂多模态知识,整合多源证据并基于领域知识推断结论。然而当前AI系统难以持续展现此类能力。科学图表的结构多样、上下文长、形式复杂,构成核心挑战。为此,我们提出AnaBench,一个包含63,178个实例的大规模基准,覆盖九大学科领域,并按七个复杂度维度系统分类。针对此挑战,我们构建Anagent——一种多智能体框架,包含四个专用智能体:Planner将任务分解为可执行子任务,Expert通过定向工具调用获取特定信息,Solver整合信息生成连贯分析,Critic基于五维质量评估进行迭代优化。我们还设计模块化训练策略,结合监督微调与专项强化学习,优化各智能体能力并保障协作效率。在9个广泛领域、170个子领域的全面评估显示,Anagent在无需训练设置下提升达13.43%,微调后提升达42.12%;结果表明,任务导向推理与上下文感知求解是高质量科学图表分析的关键。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In scientific research, analysis requires accurately interpreting complex multimodal knowledge, integrating evidence from different sources, and drawing inferences grounded in domain-specific knowledge. However, current artificial intelligence (AI) systems struggle to consistently demonstrate such capabilities. The complexity and variability of scientific tables and figures, combined with heterogeneous structures and long-context requirements, pose fundamental obstacles to scientific table \& figure analysis. To quantify these challenges, we introduce AnaBench, a large-scale benchmark featuring $63,178$ instances from nine scientific domains, systematically categorized along seven complexity dimensions. To tackle these challenges, we propose Anagent, a multi-agent framework for enhanced scientific table \& figure analysis through four specialized agents: Planner decomposes tasks into actionable subtasks, Expert retrieves task-specific information through targeted tool execution, Solver synthesizes information to generate coherent analysis, and Critic performs iterative refinement through five-dimensional quality assessment. We further develop modular training strategies that leverage supervised finetuning and specialized reinforcement learning to optimize individual capabilities while maintaining effective collaboration. Comprehensive evaluation across 9 broad domains with 170 subdomains demonstrates that Anagent achieves substantial improvements, up to $\uparrow 13.43\%$ in training-free settings and $\uparrow 42.12\%$ with finetuning, while revealing that task-oriented reasoning and context-aware problem-solving are essential for high-quality scientific table \& figure analysis.
