Would exemplar retrieval (RAG) with DiagramBank improve figure fidelity/stability? #12

Description

@lingyue404

Hi! Thanks for releasing AutoFigure. From the README, AutoFigure focuses on an iterative review–refine loop for generating editable SVG/XML figures from long-form text/papers.

We recently released DiagramBank (≈89k schematic diagrams + caption/abstract/in-text context) along with a ready-to-use RAG retrieval pipeline (indexing + top-k retrieval). We’re curious whether adding exemplar retrieval (retrieve similar methodology diagrams + their context as in-context references) could improve:

  • structural fidelity (components/edges correctness),
  • style/layout consistency,
  • fewer refinement iterations / lower cost.

Would you be interested in a small ablation study or integration discussion? We can share a minimal adapter that returns top-k exemplars (images + caption/context) given a method section or caption.
