DRAgent introduces a discriminative reasoning framework for Referring Expression Segmentation that replaces direct coordinate prediction with a two‑stage selection process. First, a detector generates candidate boxes; then a multimodal large language model (MLLM) discriminates the correct target through high‑recall screening and instance‑wise verification. The chosen box serves as a spatial prompt for a foundation segmentation model, and a self‑consistency‑filtered data pipeline is used for LoRA‑based fine‑tuning, yielding competitive results on RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, and RefCOCOg.

The paper introduces Bidirectional Reciprocal Learning (BRL), a parameter‑efficient fine‑tuning framework for referring image segmentation that operates on frozen vision foundation models. BRL employs two lightweight adapters—Reciprocal Attention Adapter (RAA) for token‑level cross‑modal attention and Reciprocal Gate Adapter (RGA) for channel‑level gating—to enable hierarchical, bidirectional information flow between vision and language. Experiments on RefCOCO, RefCOCO+, and RefCOCOg show that BRL outperforms existing methods while updating fewer than 0.5% of backbone parameters.

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.
