A new benchmark called TriViewBench has been developed to assess the structural reasoning capabilities of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs). The benchmark, comprising synthetic 3D scenes with varying object counts and occlusion, revealed that all 18 evaluated MLLMs exhibit a consistent performance hierarchy, with local decision-making tasks being the easiest and global recovery tasks being the most challenging. Performance significantly degrades as complexity increases, with object counting and global recovery tasks showing substantial performance drops. Error analysis indicates that current MLLMs struggle with cross-view spatial representation, and Chain-of-Thought prompting offers minimal improvement, suggesting fundamental scalability limitations.
