AffordDrive3D is a world-action model that jointly learns future action-relevant regions and spatial geometry for autonomous driving. It uses a VLM backbone to forecast drivable areas and collision-critical regions while predicting future geometry from RGB world-model latents. On the NAVSIM benchmark, it achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance with 91.3 PDMS and 89.9 EPDMS, showing the benefit of combining affordance prediction with geometry modeling for trajectory planning.

Fysiverse-3D-Vision is a unified vision‑language‑geometry framework that reconstructs executable 3D scenes from a single image. It separates spatial layout reasoning from asset synthesis, using a shared representation where spatial reasoning and geometric reconstruction reinforce each other. The model employs a Transformer that integrates textual supervision, semantic visual cues, and geometric representations, and includes an object‑conditioned layout module to predict object translation, rotation, and scale while maintaining physical consistency through collision‑aware optimization.

MV-STRIDE is a Multi‑View hierarchical Spatial Reasoning dataset that models dependencies among perception, scene understanding, and contextual reasoning to support 3D spatial cognition. It introduces a QA generation pipeline that enforces cross‑view constraints, producing multi‑level reasoning tasks with chain‑of‑thought supervision. Experiments show that training on MV‑STRIDE yields state‑of‑the‑art performance on multi‑view spatial benchmarks, enabling MLLMs to reason robustly across diverse viewpoints.

CitySTAR introduces a training‑free framework that transforms billion‑scale urban point clouds into a query‑ready scene graph of open‑vocabulary 3D instances, using CodeLLM‑driven tools to supply multimodal evidence for node attributes and spatial relations. It models target‑context topology with paired hypergraphs and performs bidirectional topology verification for structural disambiguation, followed by a Reflective Cross‑modal Grounding module that integrates topology consistency and 2D visual evidence to decide over a metric‑aware 3D context graph. The authors also present CitySTAR‑3D, a benchmark that enhances semantic coverage, instance completeness, bounding‑box fidelity, and spatial‑relation complexity for city‑scale 3D grounding, and report extensive experiments showing consistent improvements in open‑world urban 3D grounding with strong interpretability and generalization.

GraFT is a training‑free framework that enhances spatial reasoning in multimodal large language models by integrating a compact 3D scene graph (3DSG). It offers deterministic geometry via symbolic tools, allocentric layout through bird’s‑eye‑view rendering, and visual‑attribute grounding using egocentric frames. Experiments on ScanQA and VSI‑Bench show significant performance gains, with CIDEr increasing by 27% and improvements up to 65% over baseline models.
