While several knowledge repositories and databases are developed to combat this issue, a considerable amount of manual effort to populate the databases is required. The information these tools seek to present is often compactly summarized in causal models with a graph-like structure (e.g., structural equation models). Our work aims to develop a graph parsing method that reduces the amount of manual effort required and thus builds a foundation towards an augmentation of knowledge extraction from causal models. We contribute to the ongoing efforts in developing graph parsing tools by proposing a novel instance segmentation-based approach that leverages a new method to generate annotated synthetic graph images. Our solution is evaluated on a dataset of 166 images of structural equation models and outperforms existing graph parsing approaches in this use case.",
