ARES: Multimodal Adaptive Reasoning via Difficulty-Aware Token-Level Entropy Shaping

ICLR 2026poster

Recent advances in multimodal large reasoning models (MLRMs) have substantially improved their ability to solve complex textual and visual tasks. However, these models tend to *overthink* on simple problems, producing unnecessarily lengthy reasoning traces, while *under-exploring* on challenging one…

Revisual-R1: Advancing Multimodal Reasoning From Optimized Cold Start to Staged Reinforcement Learning

ICLR 2026poster

Inspired by the remarkable reasoning capabilities of Deepseek-R1 in complex textual tasks, many works attempt to incentivize similar capabilities in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) by directly applying reinforcement learning (RL). However, they still struggle to activate complex reasoning.…

Seeing Across Views: Benchmarking Spatial Reasoning of Vision-Language Models in Robotic Scenes

ICLR 2026poster

Vision-language models (VLMs) are essential to Embodied AI, enabling robots to perceive, reason, and act in complex environments. They also serve as the foundation for the recent Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. Yet, most evaluations of VLMs focus on single-view settings, leaving their ability t…
