What happens if I don't have R or Python installed?

If no local environment is detected, the skill will generate the complete script and save it to your directory with instructions on how to run it later.

Which programming languages does the skill use to generate figures?

The skill primarily uses R and Python, leveraging specialized packages like ggplot2, metafor, and lifelines to create publication-quality visuals.

Does it follow specific journal formatting for captions?

Yes, it follows a strict five-part structure including a bold title, descriptive body, alphabetical abbreviations, statistical notes, and sequential numbering.

Can it read data from an image I upload?

Yes, it uses Claude's multimodal vision capabilities to extract structured data, point estimates, and statistical notes from uploaded scientific images.

数据科学与机器学习

Interprets, generates, and captions publication-quality scientific figures for quantitative academic research.

The Visual Engine skill transforms how researchers manage academic imagery by providing a comprehensive toolkit for figure analysis and creation. It leverages Claude's multimodal vision to extract structured data from complex scientific plots—such as Forest plots, Kaplan-Meier curves, and PRISMA diagrams—while offering automated generation of new visuals using specialized R and Python code templates. Designed for high-impact manuscript preparation, the skill also automates the creation of five-part, journal-standard captions to ensure every figure is standalone and submission-ready.
