Parse Before You Execute: Efficient Spatial Reasoning with Executable Primitives

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper introduces PEPS, a training‑free framework that improves spatial reasoning in Vision‑Language Models by parsing queries into a compact set of executable requirements before execution. PEPS uses a typed FESM schema (Frame, Entity, State, Metric) to commit queries, then selectively grounds primitives via fixed geometric APIs and verifies sufficiency, allowing early termination or targeted repair. Experiments on spatial reasoning benchmarks show that PEPS boosts accuracy while reducing refinement rounds, API cost, and latency compared to existing tool‑integrated baselines.

SpatialClaw: Rethinking Action Interface for Agentic Spatial Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 13673v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spatial reasoning, the ability to determine where objects are, how they relate, and how they move in 3D, remains a fundamental challenge for vision-language models (VLMs).

Self-Evolving Neuro-Symbolic Skills for Tool-Augmented Spatial Reasoning

arXiv:2608. 07955v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large vision-language models have achieved strong performance in multimodal reasoning, but they remain unreliable on fine-grained spatial tasks that demand both precise spatial perception and fine-grained geometric computation beyond end-to-end generation.

From Symbolic to Geometric: Enabling Spatial Reasoning in Large Language Models

arXiv:2606. 04381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent large language models (LLMs) often appear to exhibit spatial reasoning ability; however, this capability is largely \emph{symbolic}, arising from pattern matching over spatial language rather than true \emph{geometric} reasoning over space.
