Rule-Compliant Visual Spatial Planning for Multimodal Large Language Models

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2608. 20237v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) combine linguistic reasoning with visual perception, yet their ability to perform visual spatial planning under explicit or previously unseen rule constraints remains underexplored.

Guide, Think, Act: Interactive Embodied Reasoning in Vision-Language-Action Models

The paper introduces GTA‑VLA, an interactive Vision‑Language‑Action framework that lets users guide robot policies with explicit visual cues such as affordance points, boxes, and traces. Unlike traditional direct sense‑to‑act models, GTA‑VLA incorporates a spatial‑visual Chain‑of‑Thought that blends human guidance with internal task planning, and couples this reasoning module with a lightweight reactive action head for efficient execution. Experiments on the SimplerEnv WidowX benchmark show a state‑of‑the‑art 81.2 % success rate, and the framework significantly improves task success under out‑of‑domain visual shifts and spatial ambiguities, demonstrating the benefit of interactive reasoning for failure recovery in embodied control.
