VGenST-Bench is a new video benchmark for MLLM spatio-temporal reasoning built via generative synthesis, a multi-agent pipeline with human oversight, a 3x2x2 taxonomy, and hierarchical tasks separating perception from reasoning.

MPDocBench-Parse provides a 3,246-page benchmark and evaluation protocol for multi-page document parsing that tests text/table/formula extraction, merging, figure handling, reading order, and heading hierarchy.
ArchSIBench is a new benchmark dataset and evaluation suite that measures vision-language models on architectural spatial intelligence across 17 subtasks, showing most models lag human baselines especially in transformation and configuration.
ViSRA boosts MLLM 3D spatial reasoning performance by up to 28.9% on unseen tasks via a plug-and-play video-based agent that extracts explicit spatial cues from expert models without any post-training.
OralMLLM-Bench reveals performance gaps between multimodal large language models and clinicians on cognitive tasks for dental radiographic analysis across periapical, panoramic, and cephalometric images.
SpaMEM benchmark shows multimodal LLMs succeed at spatial tasks with text histories but sharply fail at long-horizon belief maintenance from raw visual streams alone.
PanoWorld adds spherical spatial cross-attention and pano-native training data to MLLMs for improved spatial reasoning on ERP panoramas, outperforming baselines on new and existing benchmarks.
VLMs possess a latent 3D scene topology subspace corresponding to Laplacian eigenmaps that can be causally shaped via Dirichlet energy regularization to improve spatial task performance by up to 12.1%.
