Object-Uni: A Unified Model for Object-Centric Spatial Understanding and Controllable Generation

Object-Uni is a unified model that integrates pose perception, spatial reasoning, pose-conditioned generation, and novel view synthesis for object-centric spatial understanding and controllable image generation. It treats object pose as an explicit geometric variable shared across tasks and introduces a viewpoint-based orientation abstraction to make pose interpretable by multimodal large language models. The authors also create a new benchmark, UniSpatial-80K, and demonstrate that Object‑Uni improves both pose understanding and pose‑controllable generation compared to existing models.

DK-VLM: Geometry as Position for Spatial Reasoning in Vision-Language Models

DK‑VLM introduces Dual‑Kernel Attention, where a visual token’s attention is computed from both its input position and its geometric position derived from 3D points and camera poses. A semantic kernel preserves pretrained attention while a geometric kernel modulates attention via point displacements and relative view transformations, with a learned gate fusing the two. The model also employs Reference‑Frame Composition supervision to update its reference frame across successive judgments, achieving top scores on six spatial benchmarks and strong performance on VSI‑Bench and ReVSI‑32.
