Researchers from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, led by Liang Xiaodan, have developed GeoThinker and GeoThinker-F, two advancements in spatial reasoning for visual language models. GeoThinker improves how models select and utilize external geometric information, reducing interference and boosting performance on benchmarks like VSI-Bench. GeoThinker-F further optimizes this by enabling the model to internally generate spatial representations, eliminating the need for real-time external geometric encoders and resulting in a 3.6x speed increase in spatial reasoning with largely preserved accuracy.
