Detecting Layout Templates in Complex Multiregion Files
Summary: Mondrian detects independent regions in complex multiregion spreadsheets by rendering sheets as images, clustering candidate elements, and modeling layouts as graphs. It discovers recurring templates across files and outperforms table-recognition methods on enterprise corpora. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
