Figure, table and section ledger
Editorial contribution type: Domain-grounded methods & physical systems (primary).
Layout extraction, not a required paper template. Counts are distinct caption labels; a multi-panel figure counts once. Section spans are estimated from heading positions, including floats and whitespace. Method and limitations.

Extraction notes: No attached appendix boundary detected. Zero means no recognized caption, not independently verified absence.
Source-bound correction: Physical p.6 raster confirms Table1 and section4 despite malformed/overwide extracted equation text. Restore those locators (page-relative visual estimate for p.6) and section5 from source text. Main has Figures1–5 and Tables1–3.
Section-by-section lengths and source pages
The title/abstract/front matter precede the first numbered heading. A span ends at the next detected top-level heading, not at the last sentence; end-page whitespace is included. References and statements are listed separately. These are not measurements of text-only or artwork area.

Argument and organization
- 1 Introduction; 2 Related Work
Contrasts data-demanding learned acoustic fields with costly physics-based methods, then motivates material cues from images.
- 3 Approach
Defines measured inputs and RIR decomposition before beam tracing, multi-scale response, visual aggregation and a residual field.
- 4 Experiments; 5 Conclusion
Separates two real-room datasets, nested data budgets, component controls and interpretable spatial/material views.
Problem, claim and contribution
Uses a physical cross-modal rationale: geometry and material affect both visible appearance and acoustic reflection, while sparse measured RIRs alone underdetermine surface response.
Sections 1 and 3.1, physical pp.1–3 · Main paper
Argument and section order
The overview decomposes source, reflected and residual responses and maps each term to its own method subsection before the evaluation.
Sections 3.2–3.6, pp.3–6 · Main paper
Figures, captions and visual explanation
A two-band diagram aligns visual processing with acoustic beam tracing; a residual-field inset shows secondary sources, and loss/backpropagation arrows close the learning loop.
Figure 2, p.4 · Main paper
Tables, comparisons and evidence
The HAA table groups identical metric/unit columns by room and specifies 12 training listener locations. The prose explicitly names the Hallway C50 exception.
Table 2 and Section 4.2, p.7 · Main paper
Appendix and reproducibility
Beam geometry, covariance derivation, extra metric results, implementation and waveform comparisons are deferred to the supplement; only their main-text pointers were inspected.
Sections 3.3–3.4 and 4, pp.3–7 · Main paper
Clarity and writing conventions
Dataset descriptions distinguish real measurements, Polycam-rendered visual inputs and coarse planar geometry used for beam tracing.
Section 4.1, p.6 · Main paper
What to reuse—and what not to infer
Transferable lesson: Make measured, rendered and approximated quantities distinct; repeat units and acquisition budgets next to every cross-scene comparison.
Boundary: Material-colored visualizations are interpretations of learned responses, not independent material measurements. Table 3 does not show every removal worsening every metric, so avoid universal component-necessity wording.
Apply this lesson using the argument and evidence worksheet.
