We present DataEX_Sc, a specialized model for parsing scatter plots, to make valuable contributions to data‐driven materials science. It improves accuracy by 0.23 (absolute F1 gain when relative error threshold = 0.02) over full‐automatic tools and boosts efficiency by 80% compared with semi‐automated tools.
