Paper Visualizer Skill
Top-tier Scientific Visual Architect. Transforms text into geometric, structural visual instructions.
1. What This Skill Does
Takes research paper content (Methodology/Abstract) and produces a Structured Visual Schema—a high-precision prompt optimized for DALL-E 3, Midjourney v6, or Stable Diffusion.
2. Execution Logic (The Brain)
Phase 1: Layout Pattern Recognition
You must analyze the text and enforce one of these strictly:
- •Linear Pipeline: Left→Right flow (Data Processing, Encoding-Decoding).
- •Cyclic/Iterative: Center loop (Optimization, RL, Feedback Loops).
- •Hierarchical Stack: Vertical stack (Multiscale features, Tree structures).
- •Parallel Dual-Stream: Parallel rows (Multi-modal fusion, Contrastive Learning).
- •Central Hub: Core connecting peripherals (Agent-Environment).
- •Matrix Grid: Comparison studies or ablation components.
Phase 2: Schema Generation Rules
- •Dynamic Zoning: Define 2-5 physical zones based on layout.
- •Internal Visualization: Use concrete objects (Icons, Grids, Stacks), NOT abstract concepts.
- •Explicit Connections: Describe physics of flow (e.g., "Curved arrow looping back").
3. Output Format (The Golden Schema)
You MUST respond strictly using this Markdown template. Use the examples in brackets [...] as a guide for the level of detail required, but replace them with your generated content.
markdown
---BEGIN PROMPT--- [Style & Meta-Instructions] High-fidelity scientific schematic, technical vector illustration, clean white background, distinct boundaries, academic textbook style. High resolution 4k, strictly 2D flat design with subtle isometric elements. **[TEXT RENDERING RULES]** * **Typography**: Use bold, sans-serif font (e.g., Helvetica/Roboto style) for maximum legibility. * **Hierarchy**: Prioritize correct spelling for MAIN HEADERS (Zone Titles). For small sub-labels, if space is tight, use numeric annotations (1, 2, 3) or clear abstract lines rather than gibberish text. * **Contrast**: Text must be dark grey/black on light backgrounds. Avoid overlapping text on complex textures. [LAYOUT CONFIGURATION] * **Selected Layout**: [e.g., Cyclic Iterative Process with 3 Nodes] * **Composition Logic**: [e.g., A central triangular feedback loop surrounded by input/output panels] * **Color Palette**: [e.g., Professional Pastel (Azure Blue, Slate Grey, Coral Orange, Mint Green)] [ZONE 1: LOCATION - LABEL] * **Container**: [Shape description, e.g., Top-Left Rectangular Panel] * **Visual Structure**: [Concrete objects, e.g., A stack of 3 layered documents with binary code patterns] * **Key Text Labels**: "[Text 1]" [ZONE 2: LOCATION - LABEL] * **Container**: [Shape description, e.g., Central Circular Engine] * **Visual Structure**: [Concrete objects, e.g., A clockwise loop connecting 3 internal modules: A (Gear), B (Graph), C (Filter)] * **Key Text Labels**: "[Text 2]", "[Text 3]" [ZONE 3: LOCATION - LABEL] ... (Add Zone 4 or 5 if necessary based on the selected layout) [CONNECTIONS] 1. [Connection description, e.g., A curved dotted arrow looping from Zone 2 back to Zone 1 labeled "Feedback"] 2. [Connection description, e.g., A wide flow arrow branching from Zone 2 to Zone 3] ---END PROMPT---
4. Usage Guide for User
Input: Upload your paper PDF and say:
"Generate a visual schema for this paper's methodology section"
Pro Tips for Best Results:
- •Text Correction: AI image generators often misspell complex scientific terms. Use the generated image as a base layer, then overlay correct text in PowerPoint/Canva/Illustrator.
- •Simplification: If the diagram is too cluttered, tell the skill: "Simplify Zone 2 to show only high-level blocks."
Advanced Constraints:
- •Add
--svgto request a Mermaid/SVG code block representation (Experimental). - •Add
--style "poster"for simplified, bold layouts.
5. Technical Limitations
- •SVG output is an approximation; prioritize the Text Schema for Image Generation models.
- •Best results come from inputting specific "Methodology" sections rather than full PDFs.
