Traditional document parsing systems use Markdown as their output representation, which is effective for linear text but does not fully preserve fine-grained spatial structure, table geometry, visual hierarchy, or rendering semantics. We show that HTML is advantageous for heterogeneous and layout-sensitive documents whose representations must remain editable, inspectable, and reusable, and introduce AmbiHTMLBench to systematically study this setting. In this benchmark, given a real-world document, a model must recover executable HTML that preserves its content, organization, and visual appearance. The benchmark contains 1,115 diverse pages with structured annotations and evaluates predictions in two different ways: The objective protocol aligns ground-truth and predicted rendered blocks and measures table fidelity, page-level text error, and a two-dimensional layout consistency; a complementary reference-anchored protocol measures perceived fidelity by aligning LLM judges with human preferences. Across ten primary multimodal systems, the best objective score is 0.8092, while the subjective winner is different, demonstrating that automatic decomposition and human-perceived fidelity capture complementary properties. We further fine-tune a small-parameter expert model and find that task-specific adaptation yields good performance on document-to-HTML reconstruction task. These results position AmbiHTMLBench as a diagnostic testbed for building smarter and more logical document parsing systems.
Visual mental imagery (VMI) decoding uses brain activity to reconstruct internally generated visual scenes, providing a potential pathway for externalizing internal experiences and developing neuroprosthetic communication interfaces. However, progress is limited by the lack of dedicated, training-scale VMI datasets. Current VMI paradigms often rely on visual prompts or short-term memory images, introducing visual and mnemonic confounds that make it difficult to disentangle neural activity associated with endogenous image construction from signals driven by prior or concurrent visual input. Furthermore, existing VMI datasets offer limited descriptive control over individual visual attributes, making it difficult to systematically assess fine grained visual details. To address these gaps, we introduce AVID, the first dedicated training-scale 5.0 Tesla functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) resource for auditory-induced VMI decoding. AVID comprises approximately 67 hours of dense recordings from nine participants. The dataset is structured into two complementary splits: a scene-level complex split using naturalistic Mandarin descriptions and a controlled simple split with explicitly specified visual attributes. We further formalize a standardized evaluation protocol that decouples source-image consistency from semantic alignment, allowing for a more nuanced assessment of imagery reconstruction. Baseline qualitative and quantitative results show that current reconstruction pipelines remain limited on AVID, although the most successful reconstructions preserve recognizable scene level semantics from spoken descriptions. By combining dedicated training-scale neural recordings and standardized evaluation resources, AVID provides both a data foundation for imagery-specific model development and a benchmark for evaluating VMI decoding with substantially reduced sensory contamination.
