GTPred is a new benchmark for geo‑temporal prediction that evaluates multi‑modal large language models (MLLMs) on 370 images taken across 120 years worldwide. It assesses predictions by matching both the year and a hierarchical location sequence, and includes annotated reasoning chains to test intermediate reasoning. Experiments on 15 MLLMs show that while visual perception is strong, models still lack world knowledge and geo‑temporal reasoning, and that adding temporal data improves location inference.

The paper introduces GeoSpatialBench, a benchmark for evaluating spatial reasoning and constrained spatial editing in multimodal large language models. It tests 28 spatial relations across GeoJSON and map image data from six cities, revealing that models perform better on GeoJSON than images and struggle with quantitative metric relations and editing tasks that must satisfy spatial constraints. The study highlights a significant gap between recognizing spatial relations and actively manipulating them in AI systems.
arXiv:2601. 19099v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision--language models (VLMs) achieve strong performance on many multimodal benchmarks but remain brittle on spatial reasoning tasks that require aligning abstract overhead representations with egocentric views.

The paper introduces RISEBench and its expanded version RISEBench++, a benchmark for evaluating reasoning-informed visual editing (RISE). RISEBench++ categorizes tasks into six reasoning dimensions—Temporal, Causal, Spatial, Logical, Counterfactual, and Hybrid—decomposed into 12 subcategories and 65 fine-grained task types, and includes 1,000 human‑annotated test cases in English and Chinese. The authors also present RISE‑Agent, a training‑free framework that integrates reasoning‑driven planning, tool‑augmented execution, and verifier‑guided refinement, outperforming most existing approaches on diverse RISE tasks.
Although multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable progress, understanding 3D spatial relationships from 2D images remains a critical challenge. Existing methods primarily rely on symbolic text tokens, which inherently lack the fidelity to represent continuous geometric information.
arXiv:2608. 12876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting AI-generated images is only half the task: a deployed detector must also justify its verdict, yet existing detectors inherit three failure modes from their training data: real and fake images collected from different sources invite provenance shortcuts, supervised explanation corpora teach templated rationales, and a static forgery corpus leaves the decision boundary standing still while generators keep moving.
