Scientific Schematics

scripts/generate_schematic_ai.py

#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""
AI-powered scientific schematic generation using Nano Banana 2.

This script uses a smart iterative refinement approach:
1. Generate initial image with Nano Banana 2
2. AI quality review using Gemini 3.6 Flash for scientific critique
3. Only regenerate if quality is below threshold for document type
4. Repeat until quality meets standards (max iterations)

Requirements:
    - OPENROUTER_API_KEY environment variable
    - requests library

Usage:
    python generate_schematic_ai.py "Create a flowchart showing CONSORT participant flow" -o flowchart.png
    python generate_schematic_ai.py "Neural network architecture diagram" -o architecture.png --iterations 2
    python generate_schematic_ai.py "Simple block diagram" -o diagram.png --doc-type poster

Create a high-quality scientific diagram with these requirements:

VISUAL QUALITY:
- Clean white or light background (no textures or gradients)
- High contrast for readability and printing
- Professional, publication-ready appearance
- Sharp, clear lines and text
- Adequate spacing between elements to prevent crowding

TYPOGRAPHY:
- Clear, readable sans-serif fonts (Arial, Helvetica style)
- Minimum 10pt font size for all labels
- Consistent font sizes throughout
- All text horizontal or clearly readable
- No overlapping text

SCIENTIFIC STANDARDS:
- Accurate representation of concepts
- Clear labels for all components
- Include scale bars, legends, or axes where appropriate
- Use standard scientific notation and symbols
- Include units where applicable

ACCESSIBILITY:
- Colorblind-friendly color palette (use Okabe-Ito colors if using color)
- High contrast between elements
- Redundant encoding (shapes + colors, not just colors)
- Works well in grayscale

LAYOUT:
- Logical flow (left-to-right or top-to-bottom)
- Clear visual hierarchy
- Balanced composition
- Appropriate use of whitespace
- No clutter or unnecessary decorative elements

IMPORTANT - NO FIGURE NUMBERS:
- Do NOT include "Figure 1:", "Fig. 1", or any figure numbering in the image
- Do NOT add captions or titles like "Figure: ..." at the top or bottom
- Figure numbers and captions are added separately in the document/LaTeX
- The diagram should contain only the visual content itself
