Introduces Synergistic Faithfulness metric based on Shapley Interaction Index to evaluate cross-modal synergy in VLM explainers, revealing over-reliance on visual salience in existing methods.
SpatialForge synthesizes 10 million spatial QA pairs from in-the-wild 2D images to train VLMs for better depth ordering, layout, and viewpoint-dependent reasoning.
RIS improves MLLM latent visual reasoning by retrieving spatial-semantic evidence, integrating it via attention bottlenecks, and synthesizing it with language transition tokens, yielding gains on V*, HRBench, MMVP, and BLINK benchmarks.
EAGLE achieves up to 94.4% anomaly detection accuracy on MVTec-AD and 88.1% on VisA by guiding frozen MLLMs with expert-derived thresholds and confidence-aware attention without parameter updates.
