# ChartArena <!-- omit in toc -->

**A Comprehensive Bilingual Benchmark for General Chart Parsing across Families, Scenarios, and Formats**

</p>

## Overview <!-- omit in toc -->

**ChartArena** is a bilingual benchmark for evaluating the **chart parsing** capabilities of vision-language models. It covers the full difficulty spectrum of real-world charts, spanning eight chart families across three visual scenarios and two languages.

## Dataset Structure

```
data/
├── ChartArena.jsonl       # annotations for all samples
└── images/
```

## Data Format

Each line of `ChartArena.jsonl` is a JSON object:

```json
{
  "img_path": "images/xxx.png",
  "chart_type": "柱状图",
  "img_type": "电子印刷",
  "lang_type": "中文",
  "anno": "..."
}
```

| Field        | Type   | Description                                                                                      |
| ------------ | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `img_path`   | string | Relative path from `data/`; also serves as the unique sample key                                 |
| `chart_type` | string | Chart family in Chinese (e.g. `柱状图` = bar, `流程图` = flowchart)                              |
| `img_type`   | string | Visual scenario in Chinese (`电子印刷` = digital, `印刷照片` = printed, `手绘照片` = hand-drawn) |
| `lang_type`  | string | Language of chart content (`中文` = Chinese, `英文` = English)                                   |
| `anno`       | string | Ground-truth annotation                                                                          |
