SpaceTools: Tool-Augmented Spatial Reasoning via Double Interactive RL

arXiv — cs.CVThursday, December 4, 2025 at 5:00:00 AM
  • The introduction of Double Interactive Reinforcement Learning (DIRL) marks a significant advancement in enhancing Vision Language Models (VLMs) by enabling them to coordinate multiple tools through interactive exploration and feedback. This approach aims to overcome the limitations of traditional methods that rely on fixed tool pipelines, thus improving spatial reasoning capabilities essential for embodied applications.
  • This development is crucial as it allows VLMs to utilize a diverse range of tools, such as depth estimators and segmentation models, thereby augmenting their spatial reasoning abilities. The ability to learn optimal tool-use patterns autonomously could lead to more effective applications in various fields, including robotics and autonomous systems.
  • The challenges faced by VLMs in achieving precise spatial reasoning are echoed in ongoing research efforts to enhance 3D spatial intelligence and object-interaction reasoning. Addressing these issues is vital for the evolution of AI systems, as they increasingly require sophisticated reasoning capabilities to interact with complex environments and perform tasks that demand a nuanced understanding of spatial relationships.
