CV-Arena: An Open Benchmark for Instructional Computer Vision Problem Solving with Human-AI Collaborative Preferences

arXiv:2606. 00931v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Instruction-guided image editing is becoming a general interface for visual work, yet existing benchmarks still focus largely on narrow appearance edits and do not fully capture the diversity of real-image tasks in professional workflows.

OmniHarness: Harnessing Generalizable Visual Generation via Symbolic Policy Learning

OmniHarness is a framework that enables generalizable visual generation by learning symbolic policies from verified executions. It abstracts shared procedures and applicability conditions, allowing these policies to be instantiated, adapted, and composed for new tasks while keeping model parameters fixed. The system uses intermediate verification for refinement, self-directed inquiry to generate practice tasks, and continuous feedback to expand capabilities, achieving strong results on multiple benchmarks and outperforming baselines on Creative tasks.

VISA: Agentic Self-Evolving Data Synthesis for Multimodal Instruction Following

VISA (Visual Instruction Synthesis Agent) is an agentic framework that transforms multimodal instruction synthesis into a self‑evolving loop. Each cycle analyzes images to filter constraints, samples new constraint sets, generates candidate instructions, and verifies them using executable tools and large language model judges. Failed samples trigger diagnostic recovery, while accepted samples are evaluated against the target model to estimate difficulty, with all feedback written back to memory to adapt future rounds and provide reward signals for reinforcement learning.

Beacon: Knowing When and How to Perform Agentic Visual Reasoning

Beacon is a new agentic visual reasoning model that improves multimodal large language models (MLLMs) by better deciding when to use tools and how to use them. It introduces two key concepts—Mode Adaptiveness, which ensures tools are invoked only when necessary, and Tool Effect, which measures the net benefit of tool use— and trains the model with supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning that rewards necessity-aware decisions and expands capability through expert hints. Across 13 benchmarks, Beacon outperforms other open‑source models, achieving the highest average score and the largest net tool‑gain on diagnostic tests.
