Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for autonomous driving scene understanding, yet existing methods still face a fundamental trade-off between temporal reasoning and spatial precision. Models that rely on single-frame or low-resolution inputs often miss small, distant, or partially occluded hazards, while language-centric driving models frequently provide limited grounded evidence for their explanations.

STRIDE (SpatioTemporal Reasoning In Driving Edge Cases) is a new benchmark designed to evaluate vision-language models on complex, safety-critical driving scenarios. It includes six task families—spatial perception, spatial understanding, temporal memory, temporal extrapolation, trajectory prediction, and scene-context awareness—using multiple-choice questions and free-form visual question answering that require detailed scene explanations and driving decision justifications. The benchmark focuses on unusual object behaviors and complex traffic interactions, and results show that even the best model, GPT‑6‑Astra, scores only 43.4% on average, highlighting significant gaps in spatiotemporal reasoning.

DriveMind is a multimodal large language model (MLLM) framework for autonomous driving that maintains multiple hypotheses about a traffic scene and updates their weights as new frames arrive, inspired by particle filtering. By propagating each hypothesis through a vision-language model, scoring against current observations, and resampling to preserve diversity, DriveMind improves driving performance on the Bench2Drive benchmark, raising the Driving Score from 68.50 to 81.37 and the Success Rate from 41.36% to 54.09%. The approach yields the largest gains in ambiguous scenarios such as unsignalized intersections and oncoming-traffic interactions, and also enhances fine‑grained interactive driving tasks like merging, emergency braking, and give‑way.

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.
