Figure, table and section ledger

Editorial contribution type: Architecture & representation design (primary) · Datasets, benchmarks & measurement resources.

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.

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. Motivating experiments

    Direct-plan and single-relation failures introduce the need for a task-specific unified scene representation before method details.

  2. Representation, data, benchmark, deployment

    Separate named artifacts support graph-generation training, structured evaluation, and downstream robot demonstrations.

Problem, claim and contribution

Three limitations—single relation type, static state, and missing task relevance—map directly to the proposed representation's design choices.

Page 2, introduction. · Main paper

Argument and section order

Question-form headings and boxed preliminary findings make the motivating experiments serve as explicit design arguments.

Pages 3–5, section 3. · Main paper

Figures, captions and visual explanation

A central household scene is surrounded by task-coloured instruction panels, object crops, and small graphs, grounding abstract relations in recognizable actions.

Page 1, Figure 1. · Main paper

Tables, comparisons and evidence

The main table pairs without/with-graph columns within each difficulty tier and separates closed/open models, exposing both intervention effects and baseline scale.

Page 9, Table 2. · Main paper

Appendix and reproducibility

A concrete JSON annotation precedes dataset statistics; later sections report training configuration, alternative supervision, reward sensitivity, and stage-specific robot failures.

Pages 16–22, appendices A–B. · Main paper

Clarity and writing conventions

The deployment description explicitly separates the high-level planning contribution from teleoperation-derived task-specific primitive skills.

What to reuse—and what not to infer

Transferable lesson: Use motivating controlled comparisons to justify each representation choice, then keep the representation, dataset, model, benchmark, and execution layer terminologically distinct.

Boundary: MCQ accuracy is not autonomous task-completion rate. The quantitative robot experiment has only 10 trials and task-specific primitive skills. The 60.2→71.6 gain is 11.4 percentage points, despite the source calling it a relative improvement.

Apply this lesson using the argument and evidence worksheet.
