Wyvern: An Agentic Framework for Generating Grounded Multimodal Reports

arXiv:2608.14446v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the current artificial intelligence-driven innovation era, the pace of knowledge growth is accelerating, and is hard to keep up with. While generative models are increasingly used to synthesize content, they often lack in information grounding. To address these peculiarities of our time, we propose Wyvern, a multi-agent framework for the automated generation of grounded, multimodal technical reports. Wyvern allows for the generation of multimodal outputs, integrating images, tables, and text with supporting references in a unified report. Additionally, a particular focus is placed on the grounding of the content, with the implementation of a claims auto-revision stage. We conduct a human evaluation study to assess the quality of our proposed framework. The results show that the figures' informativeness is perceived as superior to that of a recent baseline in 87% of cases. Furthermore, Wyvern's reports are rated as more useful than those produced by three alternative methods in 63% to 100% of instances. We also carry out automatic evaluations showing that Wyvern gains up to 2.3imes in citation recall and 1.6imes in citation precision with respect to the baselines.
