Researchers have developed CURV, a novel curriculum learning framework designed to improve the visual grounded reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) for chart question answering (CQA). CURV reformulates CQA into multi-step visual reasoning processes that integrate logical deduction with dynamic visual grounding via spatial attention concentration. To support this framework, a new dataset called CCQA was created, featuring a three-level curriculum with scalable synthetic generation for various chart types and reasoning complexities. Experiments show CURV significantly outperforms existing methods, achieving up to a 20.50% improvement on CQA tasks and demonstrating generalizability to real-world and out-of-domain multimodal reasoning challenges.
