EvoDiagram: Agentic Editable Diagram Creation via Design Expertise Evolution
On the map: LLM agents and tool use → Multimodal and embodied agents
Abstract (arXiv)
High-fidelity diagram creation requires the complex orchestration of semantic topology, visual styling, and spatial layout, posing a significant challenge for automated systems. Existing methods also suffer from a representation gap: pixel-based models often lack precise control, while code-based synthesis limits intuitive flexibility. To bridge this gap, we introduce EvoDiagram, an agentic framework that generates object-level editable diagrams via an intermediate canvas schema. EvoDiagram employs a coordinated multi-agent system to decouple semantic intent from rendering logic, resolving conflicts across heterogeneous design layers. Additionally, we propose a design knowledge evolution mechanism that distills execution traces into a hierarchical memory of domain guidelines, enabling agents to retrieve context-aware expertise adaptively. We further release CanvasBench, a benchmark consisting of both data and metrics for canvas-based diagramming. Extensive experiments demonstrate that EvoDiagram exhibits excellent performance and balance against baselines in generating editable, structurally consistent, and aesthetically coherent diagrams. Our code is available at https://github.com/AuraX-AI/EvoDiagram.
