arXiv:2606. 09669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spatial reasoning is a foundational capability for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to perceive and operate within the physical world.
SceneTeract is a verification interface that separates semantic action understanding from physical feasibility in indoor 3D scenes. It decomposes activities into atomic actions and performs explicit geometric checks to determine executability, providing diagnostic traces for failures. The system reveals widespread functional and accessibility issues in synthetic scenes, shows that existing VLMs over‑predict action feasibility, and improves VLM performance through post‑training with verifier feedback, with benefits that generalize to real‑world scenes.

arXiv:2607. 03461v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World models aim to capture environment dynamics in ways that support perception, reasoning, and action, and have recently become a central direction in Vision-Language-Action-World (VLAW) modeling.
World Action Agent (WAA) is a multi‑agent framework that lets vision‑language models (VLMs) directly pilot robots by operating within a visual action workspace. The workspace provides automatically selected contact views, editable action rehearsals, and in‑view correction to refine decisions before low‑level execution. WAA learns procedural skills from expert videos and human teaching, and its interaction traces can train smaller VLMs, achieving state‑of‑the‑art success on LIBERO‑Pro and improving out‑of‑domain performance on robosuite and Qwen3.5‑9B.

RoboPhys-3D is a 3D‑grounded embodied world model benchmark built on RoboTwin 2.0, featuring 50 manipulation tasks, 5,000 episodes, and 25,000 multi‑view ground‑truth videos. It evaluates video world models by processing both generated and ground‑truth videos through the same 3D reconstruction pipeline, allowing the separation of reconstruction‑induced from generation‑induced errors. The benchmark defines 50 metrics across four sub‑dimensions—pixel fidelity, 3D geometry consistency, state understanding, and task completeness—and introduces the Average Full Score and RoboPhyscore for holistic assessment, with RoboPhyscore showing strong correlation with human judgments.
MineExplorer is a benchmark designed to assess the open‑world exploration abilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) in Minecraft. It filters out tasks that rely heavily on Minecraft‑specific knowledge, organizes tasks into ReAct‑style capabilities, and composes atomic tasks into implicit multi‑hop challenges. A multi‑agent synthesis workflow creates reliable task graphs, sandbox scenes, and rule‑based milestone evaluators, and human evaluation confirms its superiority over a single‑agent baseline. Experiments show that while advanced MLLMs can handle many single‑hop tasks, they struggle with longer trajectories that require coordinating hidden prerequisites, and larger models or different thinking modes do not consistently improve performance.
The paper introduces GTA‑VLA, an interactive Vision‑Language‑Action framework that lets users guide robot policies with explicit visual cues such as affordance points, boxes, and traces. Unlike traditional direct sense‑to‑act models, GTA‑VLA incorporates a spatial‑visual Chain‑of‑Thought that blends human guidance with internal task planning, and couples this reasoning module with a lightweight reactive action head for efficient execution. Experiments on the SimplerEnv WidowX benchmark show a state‑of‑the‑art 81.2 % success rate, and the framework significantly improves task success under out‑of‑domain visual shifts and spatial ambiguities, demonstrating the benefit of interactive reasoning for failure recovery in embodied control.
