The paper introduces a progressive training strategy for embodied vision‑language models aimed at reducing spatio‑temporal hallucinations. It first creates a Chain‑of‑Thought dataset that breaks complex reasoning into detailed spatiotemporal steps, then uses supervised pre‑training on this dataset followed by fine‑tuning with weakly‑labeled data. Experiments show the method improves backbone accuracy and narrows the forward‑backward performance gap from over 70% to 6.53%, indicating stronger dynamic reasoning and fewer temporal biases.
CoWorld Reasoner is an agentic framework that leverages a Video World Model (VWM) as a unified visual reasoning engine for Vision‑Language Models (VLMs). It exposes multiple visual operations through tools and skills, allowing the VLM to decide when to imagine, select an operation, generate visual content, and interpret the resulting evidence. The framework includes a VLM‑VWM Harness Co‑Evolution mechanism that jointly refines tools, skills, and execution code based on feedback, while keeping model weights fixed. Across seven benchmarks covering spatial, temporal, causal, and perceptual reasoning, CoWorld Reasoner outperforms direct VLM reasoning and improves accuracy on all benchmarks, achieving notable gains on MMSI and ERQA.
The paper introduces Spatial Alignment via Geometric Evolution (SAGE), a self‑evolving framework designed to strengthen robust spatial reasoning in Vision‑Language Models (VLMs). SAGE leverages geometric and linguistic duality operations, incorporating duality consistency into training to ensure coherent answers across original and transformed inputs. The method dynamically updates its operation pool, focusing on challenging dualities while retiring mastered ones, and is model‑agnostic, data‑efficient, and applicable as a lightweight adaptation stage to existing VLMs, yielding consistent improvements on video and spatial reasoning benchmarks.
