arXiv:2606. 12830v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While recent vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong multimodal understanding, they remain limited in spatial reasoning tasks that require active evidence acquisition and multi-step visual interaction.

arXiv:2602. 08236v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite rapid progress in MLLMs, visual spatial reasoning remains unreliable when correct answers depend on how a scene would appear under unseen or alternative viewpoints.

arXiv:2606. 29932v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon strategic planning in complex strategy games demands concurrent reasoning across multiple decision domains under imperfect information and sparse reward.

arXiv:2607. 00627v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are powerful pattern-completion systems, but their default operating mode - predicting the next token from a static context - does not reliably produce persistent, manipulable representations of an external world.

arXiv:2503. 19990v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many real-world applications of spatial intelligence, such as robotic control, autonomous driving, and automated assembly, require spatial reasoning across multiple sequential steps.

arXiv:2608. 12626v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Strategic reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs) within long-horizon environments is often limited by inconsistent subgoals.

arXiv:2606. 29932v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long-horizon strategic planning in complex strategy games requires coordinating tightly coupled decision domains, including technology, economy, diplomacy, and military, across hundreds of turns under imperfect information.

arXiv:2606. 08992v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-and-Language Navigation in continuous environments requires agents to understand the spatial structure of previously unseen environments in order to follow language instructions.

Enabling Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to perform spatial reasoning remains challenging. Existing approaches treat VLMs as passive observers, which is difficult for real-world applications.
arXiv:2606. 08952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Foundation Models (MFMs) have made substantial progress, yet remain fragile in spatial reasoning over the physical world.

arXiv:2608. 09638v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Theory of Mind (ToM) is essential for agent interactions, yet existing evaluations either rely on static scenarios that oversimplify mental-state reasoning or interactive settings that provide limited diagnostic insight.
