Creating a good looking chart for better visualization is time consuming. There are plenty of well-designed charts on the Web, which are ideal references for imitation of chart style. However, stored as bitmap images, reference charts have hinder machine interpretation of style settings and thus difficult to be directly applied. In this paper, we extract visual properties from reference chart images as style templates to restyle charts. We first construct a large-scale dataset of 187,059 chart images from real world data, labeled with predefined visual property values. Then we introduce an end-to-end learning network to extract the properties based on two image-encoding approaches. Furthermore, in order to capture spatial relationships of chart objects, which are crucial in solving the task, we propose a novel positional encoding method to integrate clues of relative positions between objects. Experimental results show that our model significantly outperforms baseline models. By adding positional features, our model achieves better performance. Finally, we present the application for chart restyling based on our model.
