arXiv:2606. 28194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While interpretable models such as concept bottleneck models (CBMs) and program synthesis methods enable verification of model decisions, their evaluation is typically limited to simple tasks, leaving complex reasoning on real-world images largely unexplored.
arXiv:2603. 23867v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have been applied to a wide range of reasoning tasks, yet it remains unclear whether they can reason robustly under distribution shifts.
arXiv:2603. 08652v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent advancements in Unified Multimodal Models (UMMs) have significantly advanced text-to-image (T2I) generation, particularly through the integration of Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning.
arXiv:2610.01605v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable visual reasoning requires composing multiple visual observations and returning consistent answers to logically equivalent questions. We intr...
The paper introduces RIG-BENCH, a benchmark for evaluating reasoning-driven image generation (RIG) in four cognitively demanding domains—Concept-based, Transformation-based, Pattern & Structure, and Scenario-based—using 2000 curated samples. It highlights a reasoning-generation gap in current unified generative models (UGMs) and world simulators, noting that these models often produce locally plausible but globally illogical outputs. RIG-BENCH aims to serve as a rigorous stress test and diagnostic framework to guide the development of next-generation, logically grounded UGMs and simulators.
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in multi-image scenarios requiring complex reasoning across visual contexts. However, current MLLMs remain fundamentally limited by o...
The paper introduces VWG-Bench, a benchmark covering nine reasoning dimensions and 38 tasks to evaluate video generative models on symbolic reasoning, physical laws, and goal pursuit. It also presents Vid-PRE, a prompt-rewriting framework that offloads reasoning to a VLM, improving logical performance without changing the generator architecture. Experiments show that current models excel at visual quality but struggle with logic-heavy tasks, while Vid-PRE significantly boosts reasoning across multiple generators.
arXiv:2607. 10666v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying AI-based visual inspection in manufacturing is hard because requirements change often, new defect types appear, and large labeled datasets are rarely available.
The paper introduces the Very Big Video Reasoning (VBVR) Dataset, a large-scale collection of over one million video clips organized into 200 curated reasoning tasks. It also presents VBVR-Bench, a benchmark framework that uses rule-based, human-aligned scorers for reproducible evaluation of video reasoning models. The authors conduct a large-scale scaling study, noting early signs of emergent generalization to unseen reasoning tasks, and make all resources publicly available.
The paper introduces MIOH, a fine‑grained benchmark for evaluating object hallucination in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) across multiple images. It assesses hallucination through four tasks—existence, counting, attribute, position—using three reasoning patterns (comprehensive, comparative, selective) and three adversarial pressures (visual context scale, perceptual difficulty, contextual bias). Evaluation of 29 models, including GPT‑5 and Gemini‑2.5‑Pro, shows distinct failure patterns, indicating that hallucination arises from integration‑stage limitations rather than just perceptual errors.
arXiv:2605. 28215v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In-context learning (ICL) enables multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to classify images from a few labelled examples.
arXiv:2606. 26535v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current VLM evaluations often conflate language priors with genuine spatial reasoning.
arXiv:2606. 03269v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Visual Question Answering (VQA) is the task of answering questions about images, requiring the integration of multimodal input and reasoning.
