Bongard-RWR+: Real-World Representations of Fine-Grained Concepts in Bongard Problems

ICLR 2026poster

Bongard Problems (BPs) provide a challenging testbed for abstract visual reasoning (AVR), requiring models to identify visual concepts from just a few examples and describe them in natural language. Early BP benchmarks featured synthetic black-and-white drawings, which might not fully capture the co…

A-I-RAVEN and I-RAVEN-Mesh: Two New Benchmarks for Abstract Visual Reasoning

IJCAI 2025

We study generalization and knowledge reuse capabilities of deep neural networks in the domain of abstract visual reasoning (AVR), employing Raven's Progressive Matrices (RPMs), a recognized benchmark task for assessing AVR abilities. Two knowledge transfer scenarios referring to the I-RAVEN dataset

Advancing Generalization Across a Variety of Abstract Visual Reasoning Tasks

IJCAI 2025

The abstract visual reasoning (AVR) domain presents a diverse suite of analogy-based tasks devoted to studying model generalization. Recent years have brought dynamic progress in the field, particularly in i.i.d. scenarios, in which models are trained and evaluated on the same data distributions. Ne

Cultivating Archipelago of Forests: Evolving Robust Decision Trees Through Island Coevolution

AAAI 2025technical

Decision trees are widely used in machine learning due to their simplicity and interpretability, but they often lack robustness to adversarial attacks and data perturbations. The paper proposes a novel island-based coevolutionary algorithm (ICoEvoRDF) for constructing robust decision tree ensembles.…

Reasoning Limitations of Multimodal Large Language Models. A case study of Bongard Problems

ICML 2025poster

Abstract visual reasoning (AVR) involves discovering shared concepts across images through analogy, akin to solving IQ test problems. Bongard Problems (BPs) remain a key challenge in AVR, requiring both visual reasoning and verbal description. We investigate whether multimodal large language models…

Coevolutionary Algorithm for Building Robust Decision Trees under Minimax Regret

AAAI 2024technical

In recent years, there has been growing interest in developing robust machine learning (ML) models that can withstand adversarial attacks, including one of the most widely adopted, efficient, and interpretable ML algorithms—decision trees (DTs). This paper proposes a novel coevolutionary algorithm (…

One Self-Configurable Model to Solve Many Abstract Visual Reasoning Problems

AAAI 2024technical

Abstract Visual Reasoning (AVR) comprises a wide selection of various problems similar to those used in human IQ tests. Recent years have brought dynamic progress in solving particular AVR tasks, however, in the contemporary literature AVR problems are largely dealt with in isolation, leading to hig…

Don’t Predict Counterfactual Values, Predict Expected Values Instead

AAAI 2023technical

Counterfactual Regret Minimization algorithms are the most popular way of estimating the Nash Equilibrium in imperfect-information zero-sum games. In particular, DeepStack -- the state-of-the-art Poker bot -- employs the so-called Deep Counterfactual Value Network (DCVN) to learn the Counterfactual…

Duel-based Deep Learning system for solving IQ tests

AISTATS 2022poster

One of the relevant aspects of Artificial General Intelligence is the ability of machines to demonstrate abstract reasoning skills, for instance, through solving (human) IQ tests. This work presents a new approach to machine IQ tests solving formulated as Raven’s Progressive Matrices (RPMs), called…

Evolutionary Approach to Security Games with Signaling

IJCAI 2022poster

Green Security Games have become a popular way to model scenarios involving the protection of natural resources, such as wildlife. Sensors (e.g. drones equipped with cameras) have also begun to play a role in these scenarios by providing real-time information. Incorporating both human and sensor de…
