The paper introduces a two‑step test‑time training protocol, Embed‑TTT, for Vision ARC (VARC) that first fine‑tunes only the task embedding and then fine‑tunes the backbone. This approach consistently produces task embeddings that better align with the underlying rules, improves retrieval and linear probing, and recovers the geometric structure of parametric rules. Even fine‑tuning only the tiny embedding component solves a significant portion of ARC‑AGI‑1, ConceptARC, and Mini‑ARC tasks, while the full two‑step pipeline further enhances performance and demonstrates compositional rule interpolation.

PotARCin expands the ARC benchmark by evaluating abstract reasoning across five dimensions—Definition, Classification, Constrained Generation, Editing, and Inversion—using programmatic generation of new task instances. The study shows a 25‑52 percentage‑point performance gap between standard ARC evaluation and PotARCin, and reveals that multi‑dimensional assessment can reorder models that appear equivalent under single‑metric accuracy. Additionally, a new held‑out set, P‑ARC, demonstrates low model accuracy (1‑8%) across all dimensions, highlighting the need for more comprehensive tests of abstract reasoning.
