arXiv:2605.27332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flowcharts are widely used in industrial requirements, but usually remain embedded as static images. Vision Language Models (VLMs) show promise in the conversion of these flowcharts into machine-readable models for RE activities, yet, when directly applied to flowchart conversion, they often fail on topology-critical visual details. To address this, we propose EdgeFlow that augments a VLM's original input with a deterministically extracted Canny edge map-acting as a structural prior-to improve flowchart-to-Mermaid conversion, without requiring
