arXiv:2606. 30185v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Improving vision-language models (VLMs) on visual reasoning typically requires retraining or hand-designed prompts and tools.
Improving vision-language models (VLMs) on visual reasoning typically requires retraining or hand-designed prompts and tools. We present Dynamo, a training-free framework that adapts a frozen VLM without any weight updates.
VICO proposes a co‑evolutionary framework where a vision‑language model (actor) and an Environment‑as‑Rewriter (EnvRewriter) are trained together. The EnvRewriter edits visual structures—such as scene graphs, chart tables, or protected region masks—to generate new training samples whose difficulty is calibrated to the actor’s current performance via a pass‑rate reward. Across nine multimodal benchmarks, VICO‑8B outperforms its base model by up to +5.0 % on out‑of‑domain tasks and surpasses other co‑evolution baselines while requiring far fewer labeled samples.

VBVR-Pro is a closed‑loop testbed that enables native visual reasoning through generation, offering 300 procedurally generated tasks that scale training and allow strong transfer to external benchmarks. It supplies verifiable reward scorers based on deterministic, task‑specific rules, outperforming VLM‑as‑a‑judge approaches and providing reliable signals for reinforcement learning. The suite also facilitates controlled modality studies, revealing that video generation excels at persistent spatiotemporal tracking while interleaved generation offers a compute‑efficient alternative, and highlights the importance of vision‑native trajectories for reasoning.
